PRINT AND ONLINE

 

After hours and hours of keyword research, searching through encyclopedias both in print and online, sorting through surveys and charts and charts and polls and polls of marketing data, I finally threw my phone against the wall.  Then I threw my stapler against the wall and immediately regretted it.  I really liked that stapler.  It was gift from my uncle on my last birthday and, at first, I was upset because, well, I had gotten a stapler as a gift.  But, over time, I had grown to love that stapler.  It was always reliable and stapled so effectively.  Now because I had grown so utterly frustrated at work I had probably broken it and no other stapler could ever replace it.  I know I get frustrated at work and need to join an after hours fight club or something and I shouldn’t have taken my postmodern rage out at an innocent stapler.  It just didn’t deserve that.  What if it had a family of little staplers and now they’re never going to see their father again.  Is there some type of stapler cemetery I can take it to and then bury it at?  I hope the stapler’s ghost doesn’t haunt me and follow me around, making me staple sheets of paper poorly from now on.
