An "F" in back-to-school store organization

Jason and I stopped into Office Depot to pick up a few school supplies.  While we found some of the items we were looking for, try as best we could, we could not locate either notebook paper or regular Bic ball-point pens.  (We did, at least, find other brands of pens, and Bic pencils.)  If that's not an "F" in back-to-school store organization I don't know what is.

It's a bit late in the "back to school" shopping. Most places are picked over before the kids even go back - and we are talking about end of August early September.

Then they have even less of a reason to be out of stock of the most basic items...

I didn't really assume they were out of stock of those things. I assume that they just failed in placing them in an easy-to-find location.

I hear there are a plethora of writing utensils at work. I usually just carry one in my backpack so I have it with me all the time.
