Santa’s work didn’t stop just because he was away from the North Pole. The workshop floor is understaffed, and Rudolph is meeting his agent in L.A. to renegotiate his contract.

But that doesn’t mean Santa can’t enjoy a candy cane latte at his favorite coffee shop while taking care of business. All it takes is a tablet and Santa’s table becomes his own paperless office.

Using GoToMyPC, he grabs the elf-overtime authorization forms which he had left stored on his workshop computer. Then, with a few swipes and a little help from ShareFile and RightSignature, he gets the ball rolling on hiring additional elves to help stock the sleigh. Signed, sealed, delivered — no paper required.

Next, Santa opens his custom-branded ShareFile site and reviews his high-maintenance reindeer’s latest contract proposal. Santa agrees to include Rudolph in any and all future reindeer games and to install softer lighting in his dressing room. However, he pushes back on the agent’s demands that Santa compliment Rudolph’s incandescent schnoz at least three times a day.

Now, that Naughty or Nice list isn’t going to check itself twice. Only a billion or so more boys and girls to go.

Perhaps it’s time to order another latte.
