How hard is it to get some sharks with fricken laserbeams attached?

Dear Bosses of Mine:
While I appreciate the gifts of the chocolate variety that were bestowed upon me this morning, it has come to my attention that in the area of office supplies, I am severely lacking.

I would like:
1. Some notepads to write on. Stickynotes are nice, but often impractically small.
2. Pens. To write aformentioned notes with.
3. More stickynotes. Supply is in danger of being depleted.
4. Someone to bring refills for the water cooler. NOW.

Thank you. That is all.

Love,
Sharon

don't you have a supply closet? go get some supplies! you shouldn't be expected to buy your own -- and if you are, and you do, make sure you keep your receipts and ask to be reimbursed.

we do. And I've tried. But it seems the cupboard is bare. I at least solved the notepad problem by moving a box on a shelf near my desk and finding some notepads, but I am told the pens and everything else will be remedied after the holidays.

(And you know what? They're right. Because I'm going to be laying the smack down, and our supply closet is going to look like a mini fucking staples.)
