Holy smokes batman! I work with superman! 
Well OK maybe not the real superman but kind of a demented run down version. My cubemate had a blue sweatshirt with the big S on today Now he is run down, has a terrible 6" comeover, limps, has glasses, is overweight. Think bazarro world superman on a bad day.
Thankfully he did not have a weapon with him...

What, now you're some kind of stapler expert?
I thought you just got a job at an auto parts store. Have you ever worked in an office where you used staplers enough to worry about jamming?

Dude, I've seen engineers go to work in a star trek outfit...and it wasn't Halloween.
Then there was "Peter Pan", a EE we saw here recently.

So did you specifically ask for a swingline then, or what?
Did you test them both back to back to see which one would jam first?

These are very fair questions, CBR929RE. Yet we get nothing but silence from you in return.
Very interesting...........  | |

I feel safer knowing he is not allowed in anymore (a few armed guards, fences and lock systems to slow him down)

And I think if someone is going to stand up and make such strong proclamations he should at least offer up what findings he observed during his intensive testing of said products.
To blindly praise Swinglines while disparaging Bostons without having put both of them through a rigorous battery of controlled testings would lead to some fairly violent fist fights in some circles.
So when looked at in that light, it becomes quite clear that BDA and I are simply looking out for the best interest, and physical safety, of our good friend CBR929RE.

I have the "Collectors Edition" Swingline 747 in Rio Red still new in the box on my desk. It says on it, "The star of any office space. Legendary performance and durability."
