I Stand Corrected!

I had to remove a staple from a pack of papers this lady wanted me to make copies of. The documents were a little torn and discolored, the staple was rusty...obviously old. While I'm making the copies, she asks "Where can I find stainless steel staples, you know, so it won't rust?"

I thought it was the most ridiculous thing I ever heard, and chuckled under my breath...and then I second guessed myself. Do they make them? So I Googled it, and I stand corrected! They do exist for construction, upholstery, etc...just not for document services. So, her question was still funny, but only half as much. :)
