Do you have a huge challenge coping with the incoming paperwork? (Whatever happened to the paperless office?). Paperwork lands on your desk (or enters you 'in-box') and somehow finds its way into your in-tray. Eventually the in-tray becomes so high it explodes and ends up all over your desktop.

Now you have no option but to sort through the explosion and tidy up the pile or actually do something with the paperwork.
