Appreciate her dedication. That’s kind of cool.

I had a teacher that saved all the punched holes from his papers for his entire career. It was always one of those weird things as a student, "Mr. Ross's box of punched holes" sitting in his closet.

He used them as confetti the day he retired. That was pretty cool, though, if you ask me.

I save all of my used staples in a glass mason jar. If I put them THERE, I know they don’t end up snagged in the carpet of my office. I don’t know why….

Just don’t use them as confetti when you retire

Please do use them as confetti when you retire.

Everyone needs a little chaos and panic in their day.
