Simple solution in office settings: find someone who COULD lug whole boxes (and do something helpful for that person in exchange), or carry a few reams at a time. Of course, this requires looking at it from the POV of "here's a problem to solve" rather than the POV of "let's see how much drama I can stir up so everyone pays attention to me".

But not to ascribe her limitations to the entire population. I can carry 50lb bags of feed on my shoulder, i can sure as hell lift a box of paper reams.

First of all, its the delivery man's job to drop off the packages wherever the recipient wants it, not just to walk in the door and drop the boxes right there. Secondly, she's a woman. Women are weaker than men, it's a fact, and all you stupid feminazis know it, you're just in denial because you have low self esteem so you make up for it by trying to act like you're "better" than men. So to all the women leaving nasty comments for this receptionist: why don't you all get together, throw a huge bra burning party, and then have a big lesbian man-hating festival in San Francisco? ps. all I gotta say is PENIS ENVY.

I put them on the cart myself and I put them in my car myself. According to this person, I guess I shouldn't physically be able to do this!

The documents should be electronically distributed and archived. Recipients wishing a hard copy may print one at their desk on their personal printer. No copy paper, no copy room, no copier, no reorder and delivery issues. Receptionist replaced by electronic call system. The paperless, receptionless office, totally eliminates forever the copy paper delivery crisis. I do not feel the problem has been thoroughly thought out and addressed.

And we're also just so silly and simple minded, we can't even send intelligible, gramatically correct e-mails to our co-workers. As a receptionist who moves boxes of copy paper around, I have no sympathy. Get one of those little carts or dollies to move things if its too heavy and stop insulting woman-kind.
