Paper Rash
Would you like to eliminate the use of paper from your daily job? Here’s a simple and highly effective tip for you. Develop a paper rash. The next time someone says, “let me give you a printout”, you say, “oh, I’m sorry, paper gives me a rash, can you email me that document instead?”. People will give you a funny look, but that’s alright, just tell them that Peter Kay made you do it. The point is to get everyone around you in the habit of sending you electronic documents instead of printed ones. You should train yourself so that every time you touch a piece of paper, it should feel like ooh aah yuck! Get that thing away from me! Now this may all sound silly, but believe me it works, primarily because you are constantly reminded to think paperless. It worked for me!
