they are very nice for hanging papers and other fun notes and things on your bullitin board
but it stinks when you drop them because they are real hard to find

I officially hate you now. It's official. I've got papers and they're being stamped and signed and duplicates are being made and I'm filing them in a cabinet. It is so official, my hate.

Pfff, no fair, he edited.
They might have some overlap but seeing as they are the same I can hang them on a single thumb tack and it won't make a lick of difference.

I hate this board. I'm trying to invent things and you all just want to talk about thumbtacking. :p (n)

I can't say thumb tacks in a sentence without pausing and concentrating somewhat. It always comes out tum thacks. :(

i just edited a double post because i got booted before i was done typing
but if you put them all on one tack, they might get mixed up or forgotten, and most faxes are more than one page anyway

Yes but how can you mix up two copies of the same fax?

being that you don't understand the basics of thumb tacking, i don't know that you can be taught...
i can however, allow you to go down to the storage closet and get some paper to refill the printer/fax machine and make me 250 color copies of this portfolio before lunch.
in soviet russia, genius declares you!

you can't quit, because you were never actually hired. you came here thinking you would learn a few things. you did, and its that you are a terrible employee and won't ever get a real office job in your life.
feel free to take all the brass tacks you'd like on your way out, they are useless to any office that does real work

I disagree. You find them really fast when you step on one while you're trying to get some goddamn cereal down from the pantry and then have the painful experience of pulling the tack out of your skin and trying to sanitize the puncture wound like they taught you in First Aid so you won't have to go to the hospital like the time your mom had to because she stepped on that pin you dropped the week before and it broke off in her foot and she had to have it surgically removed.
Just sayin' is all.
