Right there with you, Shell
I'm considering getting the heck out of IT for just the reasons you mention. We've gone to the stupid zone on a lot of this.
I have worked for companies with a clean desk policy. I manage to clean desk everywhere, just in case. In this sub-thread, some wanker decided that my tongue-in-cheek response to Tink was somehow serious so decided to go on a rant. Sheesh!
I have found the perfect method of managing my paper flow. I have a shredder. It works for me.
The reality is that I rarely need the paper I generate. I have logs of how I manage my time on a thumb drive so I can produce whatever paper I need by hitting print. But after a 10 hour day, followed by laundry, housework, supper, and, during this season, Christmas, I fall into bed late and get up early.
So I do understand. You aren't alone.
Don't let the wankers get to you. They don't get it.
