The Business of business

I have this stamp at work that says “Posted” on it. If certain items of a work-related nature have been posted, then you stamp “Posted” on them. Pretty simple, I guess. In theory, the reasons for using said stamp are as follows: (a) to save time from having to write the word “Posted” onto things, (b) create some sort of uniformity, and (c) to validate the purchase of the stamp in question.

I’m not sure how the “Posted” stamp is an appropriate use of company money and time when I spend fifteen minutes looking for it everyday because it always falls off my desk where I can’t see it, or I forget to put the toppy thing back on it and it dries all out.
