Bureaucratic Red Tape Appendix 1

For the uninitiated, Bureaucratic Red Tape is the official language of the Inter-Office of Uncoordinated Effort (IOUE). It consists of 17,000+ pages of densely-packed, alphabetically-arranged forms, reports, and memos.

As a seasoned Bureaucratic Red Tape practitioner, you know that every form, report, and memo must be filled out in triplicate, with 4-6 color-coded highlighters and 2-4 stapled corners.

But have you ever wondered what lies at the heart of this intricate, Byzantine system?

Behold, the Appendix 1 of Bureaucratic Red Tape!

Subpages:

Appendix 2: The Formulation of Form 27-B/7
Appendix 3: The Lost Art of Stapler Maintenance
