First to recommend

Description

For the guy in the office next door that swears everyone is out to get him...

A mini paper-shredder so he can destroy all of his super secret Post-Its "turkey on rye, no mayo", all his super secret phone messages "Call mom, you forgot your compression socks" all his super secret documents "Risk: Ancient Babylon tournament"...
