Red Swingline stapler

Now that I'm back working in an office, I am starting to get an appreciation for certain ingenious office devices. Nothing amazes me more than the staple remover. In my last job, I had to remove lots of staples to copy reports and such, and it was not always an easy task.

Until now, most staple removers I have encountered were like this guy. Honestly, that kind never did much for me. On the other hand, my last job had these ones floating around, which gave you a lot of leverage and worked quite well. But nothing prepared me for what I saw a few days ago.

This crazy contraption is a staple remover:

Know what it does? You stick the end in the staple you want removed, then press the handles and pow! The staple comes flying. The first time I used it, I almost shot my eye out. This thing is stupendous. It almost makes removing staples fun. It's easier than actual stapling! I honestly think somebody could give me 50 stacked documents, tell me to get the staples out of there, and I would enjoy it. That's how much I like that staple remover. Now if they could just invent some kind of legal robot - while still finding a way to pay me money...
