The manufacturer of the world's best staplers...hands down. Their staplers last 70+ years. They have become more popular in recent years due to the red stapler in the movie Office Space. After this movie, Swingline started producing a red stapler to mimic the one in that flick.
If you want to be disappointed then buy a plastic new stapler. If you want to be satisfied then buy an old metal Swingline stapler because your grandkids will still be using it. Chances are our soceity will stop using paper before these staplers break.
Ms. Meeniebutt has taught school for 45 years and she has had the same stapler on her desk the whole time...a Swingline.

In sales terms, a whale is a prospect that is significantly larger than an organization’s average customer.
Whales are large and extremely difficult to close. Due to their immense size, they are highly sought-after.
A whale is typically identified at first by a whale hunter on the sales team, but often requires cross-discipline participation in order to close; this includes assistance from operations, engineering, creative, client success, and business development teams.
"Shit...the sales director chewed me out on the sales call this morning. He's totally pissed that I have nothing in my pipeline. I've been focused on this one whale for so long that I haven't had time to prospect for normal-sized deals."
