Chris Farley’s Favorite Office Supplies
Now let’s see what office supplies this industry expert relies on to get his day to day work done:
1. My first must-have office supply is my Texas Instruments Profit Manager calculator. I am always crunching numbers so when in doubt, I always trust my TI!!!
2. USB Flash Drive – I always have this with me. With all the documents, emails, attachments I receive it is always difficult to rank them in importance. For me, the significant files always find their way onto my flash drive and it never leaves my side.
3. And of course my favorite “must-have” is the Zebra Sarasa Gel Retractable Pen. With the numerous color options and various point sizes, there is always a choice that fits my needs. Whether I’m note-taking, highlighting or prioritizing, the Sarasa Gel keeps me easily organized.
These are some great choices by Chris, especially the Zebra Sarasa’s, which I’ve used plenty of myself and I agree that they are a fantastic pen to write with. Don’t forget that you can keep up with Zebra Pen on Twitter @ZebraPen and on the Zebra Pen Facebook Page. Thanks again to Chris for sharing his favorite office supplies with us, and thanks to Zebra for all of the great products that they offer!
