Dutch to English translations [PRO]
Business/Commerce (general) | | Dutch term or phrase: gesleep | "Het gesleep met documenten behoort tot het verleden."
This is talking about the paperless office - I'm sure it means something along the lines of "all that messing about with" but in my text a construction that casual wouldn't be appropriate. My brain has turned to mush doing this job - all help gratefully received! |

| Grading comment Yes, it's the inconvenience/hassle of dealing with all the individual pieces of paper (rather than the weight of actually carrying it, I think) that is being referred to.
I think 'to-ing & fro-ing' has its merits from this point of view.
