How many of you have used a stapler before?\u00a0 Or I suppose I should ask, how many of you have NEVER used a stapler?\u00a0 I imagine that if you\u2019re reading this and are over the age of 10 or so, using a stapler is something you\u2019ve done lots of times and know how to do well.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

But the other day I had some papers that needing stapling and I asked one of my alphabet party guys to staple them, and he told me that he had never used a stapler before.\u00a0 He had seen staplers and had even seen people using them, but he had never used one himself.\u00a0 So then of course I had to give him several opportunities to use it, I opened it up and explained how it worked, I told him to watch out for his fingers, etc.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

When I told this recently to my mom, her comment was, \u201cAnd you wonder why everything takes you longer!\u201d\u00a0 Yeah, I suppose that if I had a team with Ethnos360 I probably wouldn\u2019t have to teach them things that we consider basic, like using a stapler, using Excel or Word or Powerpoint (though I sent them to a training for the basics of that at least), who Ruth and Boaz are, etc.\u00a0 I guess things like that contribute to the reasons why things progress so slowly here!<\/p>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
