Should you staple your resume and cover letter together?

The USCA.edu resume tips page linked to the right says, "Don't staple your resume (if more than one page) or staple your cover letter to the resume."

AnswerNEVER STAPLE UNLESS SPECIFICALLY ASKED TO DO SO! The reason you should never staple your resume is that is not professional. Multiple papers get stapled by teachers so kiddies don't loose em'. Plus, it's hard to forward copies to any other people in the hiring process if you have to separate the pages to copy them- which most do by pulling them apart, thus ripping your resume, and causing a jam with the top loading document feeder on most copy machines.
