Regardless of your work place, there are a few simple tools you can always employ that can help you get along better with your co-workers. The obvious ones include personal hygiene and abstaining from racist jokes, but did you know that you can also win friends and influence subordinates merely by employing stacking folders? Here are a few of the more common ways to do so. You won't appear elitist just because your inbox is of higher elevation. A stack perhaps ten-high just means that you really care about getting your interoffice memos, and noticing them when they come in.
Having a complicated series of boxes in, out and otherwise makes your work appear so complicated that others will be afraid of it, insuring no one will try to steal your job.
In a pinch, stacking folders make a great fort for protection against having to look at your coworkers.
Whether you work in an office or not, you can still use them. If you sell doughnuts, consider this a unique, though peculiar way, to file and organize your goods for display.
If you have a problem with staring out the window you've been luckily graced with, use an extensive array of stacking folders to obscure the view, thus keeping you on task, more productive, and a better coworker all around.
If you want to really get along with your coworkers, you can have one stacked folder for each letter of the alphabet, thus converting your entire filing system from that pesky horizontal method, to a more interesting vertical system.
Emergency preparedness may be the best tool you have in case of the unexpected. Always bear in mind that stacking folder, while light enough to throw with significant velocity, also have pokey, jabby edges that can leave a would-be assailant with nasty lumps to the noggin in dire moments of need.
