It's almost here!  Can you feel the excitement in the air?  This weekend one of the greatest events in sports will take place and now is the time for you to display your knowledge of this famous American contest.  Today's topic is:

Super Bowl Trivia

There were more than 40 major data breaches in the U.S. in 2017, which included such big names as Dun & Bradstreet, FAFSA, Gmail, Blue Cross/Blue Shield, Verizon, Uber and, of course, Equifax.  And just now, we all find out about Meltdown and Spectre, hardware bugs that affect the majority of computers out there (just what we needed to hear!).  Cybersecurity is a major threat and it isn't slowing down or going away anytime soon.

The beginning of a new year is always a busy time.  Filing and storing last year's documents, setting up new files, decluttering the office, organizing the supply cabinet, etc.  A good way to organize is by using storage compartments and modules.  These units give you a place to put the small items (pens, sticky notes, glue sticks, nuts, bolts, etc.).  They'll save space and create a well-designed storage unit.

Happy New Year!

I hope you all had a wonderful holiday and you're refreshed and ready for a new adventure!  However, today I'm testing your knowledge of years past with our topic:

History Trivia

Fountain pens are not very common in the work place - in fact, I can honestly say that not only do I not use one (and never have), but I don't know anyone else who does.  And although we do offer them, I've never had anyone buy one from me.  So I was surprised when I found out that Zebra Pen has come out with a new line of fountain pens.  It just didn't seem like a product that is in demand.

Introducing "an easier fountain pen":

Storage space is a key component in offices and which type of storage you use is determined by several factors, such as floor or wall space, frequency of use, decor and type of business.  Today we're going to focus on file cabinets.  I'll showcase a few of the options and, hopefully, give you information that will help you decide which type is the right one for your office.

Hello Everyone!  I hope you're all enjoying your day wherever you are.  Since we're so close to December 25, I'm sure you've already figured out what my trivia topic will be today. Yep, it's ....

Christmas Trivia

Fact or Fiction?

  Always buying supplies from the vendor with the lowest price saves the company money.

Regardless of the type of business you’re in, every company has safety and security issues to deal with.  You need the proper equipment and supplies to keep both your employees and customers safe and to avoid workplace accidents.

 What types of items do you think of when I say “Safety and Security”?  Let me guess:

Happy Thanksgiving!  I love Thanksgiving Day - watching the parades on TV, having dinner with family, eating great food.  And I LOVE pumpkin pie!  What's that?  You're not a pumpkin pie fan?  Well, to each his own - more for me!  We all love different things in life - which, if you are a regular reader, you know brings me to today's topic:

Philes

We're all familiar with the standard black plastic desktop accessories and the black mesh accessories.  You may also have seen the higher-end clear acrylic accessories and wood collections aimed more at the executives in your company. 

Today I'd like to show you a unique look from Lorell.  This collection has an industrial design to it and comes in a matte bronze finish. 

How many of you make mistakes at work?  (Come on now, I should be seeing a lot more hands than that.)  What do you do when you fill in a form with the wrong information or accidentally spell something incorrectly that you’re writing by hand?  Do you throw out the form and start over?  Probably not.  If you’re like most people, you reach for correction fluid or correction tape – and then you either wait (and wait, and wait) for the fluid to dry or you try to avoid writing over the edge of the tape.

Every day we are bombarded by commercials on TV or radio and advertisements in print such as magazines or newspapers.  Many times, I've found myself singing commercial jingles.  I've often thought that I got into the wrong business - after all, somebody made a lot of money for coming up with a finger that had a face drawn on it (Ziploc bags). 

So today, I'll test your knowledge of:

Commercial Trivia

Each of us has our own special talents.  Some of us sing, or draw, or dance, or play musical instruments.  Some people have a knack for financials and mathematics, and some.... well, some people have a gift for coming up with very unique solutions.

Greetings Fellow Trivia Geeks!

I don't know about where you are, but it's been quite tropical around here lately.  Highs in the 90's, humid.......ugh.  Thank goodness for air conditioning!

And speaking of tropical locales, this week's question comes to us courtesy of Andrew Wiest at Detroit Hoist and Crane (thanks Andrew!).

Today's topic is:

Classic TV Trivia

Work gloves are a necessary part of many jobs - often their use can prevent serious injuries.  But do you know how to choose the correct type for the work you're doing?  All gloves are not the same and understanding the glove type, material and use will help you make the right decision.  Let's begin!

I LOVE Trivia Day - and I've got a good one for you today! (Try to answer it without looking it up.)

                               Today I'm going to test your knowledge of:
