Organizing my office

By
Real Estate Agent with RE/MAX R.E. (Mountain View)

Hello all,

I am new to blogging, but will highly appreciate comments/ feedback.

Recently, I read an article in REBAC magazine on office organization. It was indicated that compueters and technology were supposed to help us move towards a paperless office. Instead of that, the amount of paper in every office is actually increasing. As a matter of fact, I have seen many offices scanning their documents to make their office paperless, but they don't throw the hard copy. They even will make  back up CDs/DVDs and going further rent external storage space. There are a few people who print each and every email which they receive.

So the technology which was supposed to make our life easier is actually making our life more complex. I am not sure what's the best way of doing things, but this is certain that we don't throw something unless we have no other choice. 

Can we really move to a paperless world?

My husband prints the email. I can never go paperless as long as he is in the office with me. The computers and technology are great for communicating- I just don't see them taking over the record keeping. My file cabinet won't crash and lose everything.
