On my past few visits to Staples I have been approached by staff with offers to be of assistance. I took note of this as I had visited other stores while working down that day's chore list. In most of the other stores I would walk the aisles and never see a store employee. If I needed assistance or to ask a question I would have to trek to the service counter and wait in line. In shore I appreciated the initiative and friendly approach. In most cases I was escorted to the area or product I was looking for.
I use more than two boxes of "Third Cut" manila file folders in a year. They keep my research topics organized by issue area my meeting agendas and supporting papers organized and all of my income and expense records for my taxes ready when tax filing time comes. My CPA says my records are better than most of her clients in large part because of the way I use the manila folders to separate all my forms with the required back-up . The file folders enable me to be efficient in my work and in my many nonprofit organization boards and committees.
