Of course your mouse wasn't working. By having kittens it had to deal with cats, and we all know how much mice like dealing with cats.

What did you mark this as in the timesheet? Reconfigure new hardware? 
|
|
|
|

Dis-configure existing hardware?

Too many mice? Do not blame the hamsters!

I wonder if the hamsters have been... sent to a farm upstate?

Contrariwise, I always get irked when they issue a stapler and a lifetime supply of staples to every new employee.
There is no need for everyone to have a stapler. Just put one in each printer station.

Let's be honest, for some management types a stapler is about the most complicated machine they can actually use.

Nah, they delegate that tricky stuff.
|

exactly my point. Although I agree wit not issuing everyone a stapler, the fact that senior management rants about it was my point

First job out of college (Univac) I needed a stapler a couple weeks after I started. Went to the office supply room and there were none. The supply person said they'd been on back order for months, no idea when they'd be in. I went to a colleague to borrow his. He opens a drawer and hands me one of his ~6. "Why do you have 6 staplers?" Because last year they couldn't get staples, but all the staplers were fully loaded. Run out of staples, go get a new stapler. Apparently lots of people did just that. There were probably 3 staplers per person in the building, just hidden in people's desks.

My stapler does more than 2 sheets.

Or printed business cards for that matter. It's all digital these days...

i do not work in an office so this stapler business is beyond me but i am confused as i assumed paper is a thing of the past . why would any modern office not utilize electronics instead . i assume paper is wasteful cost-wise environment-wise perhaps other-wise as well . by coincidence last nights' "The Good Doctor" had our hero print 100s of pages on his wifes' printer . made no sense to me . -Best

Sketching designs, printing pinouts and error tables... when working in an engineering context paper is definitely helpful as it doesn't require to switch between multiple windows or having multiple monitors (often we need to move in labs with only our laptop), reading from an instruments (like digital oscilloscopes or other specialized equipemnt) and having right there the decoding cheatsheet, having the wiring on hand while soldering at the solder station and so on.
Even while debugging it's useful since you can have some special values or a blank space to decode from hex to binary while having your eyes glued to the watch window - consider that IDEs for embedded systems are usually comparable to VisualStudio 6 or earlier in terms of features, and many embedded platforms can support only 2 active breakpoints at any given time. Having something to jot down while using the horrible debugger and the oscilloscope without constantly switching window or requiring a 42" monitor to have all the windows to a human readable size is golden.
