We had a crotchety receptionist at one time who also ordered office supplies and managed the 'copy room'.

A co-worker walked back to his desk one time with the 'copy room' stapler. She pitched an incredible fit over the stapler.

That was all the motivation he needed. He kept grabbing the stapler every chance he got, and she would order a replacement.

When he left, we cleaned his office and found 43 staplers stuffed in drawers.

One place I worked, there was a woman who was fired. She came back to work the next day... and the next... refused to leave. We put a red swingline stapler on her desk... she never got the joke.
