According to Brigadier Alistair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart, UNIT was very good at paperwork, (AUDIO: Old Soldiers [+]Loading...["Old Soldiers (CC audio story)"]) something which often perturbed the Third Doctor, who dismissed this endeavour[additional sources needed], but which Liz Shaw closely adhered to. (AUDIO: Intelligence for War [+]Loading...["Intelligence for War (audio story)"])
Donna Noble was highly familiar, having worked as a temp for many years. She claimed she could "find [her] way around an office blindfolded". She noticed a discrepancy in the paperwork at an ATMOS workplace, which no one sent by UNIT had picked up on: there were no sick days listed in their personnel files.
When Martha Jones complimented her for this, Donna called herself "Super Temp". (TV: The Sontaran Stratagem [+]Loading...["The Sontaran Stratagem (TV story)"]) Despite this, she often undervalued her skillset.

Rogue complained to the Fifteenth Doctor that his work as a bounty hunter involved "so much paperwork", ever since he started working for the Boss. (TV: Rogue [+]Loading...["Rogue (TV story)"])
The Thirteenth Doctor was excited to find paperwork at Kerblam Headquarters, calling it "very retro". Judy Maddox, Head of People at Kerblam, kept it all in a filing cabinet in her office. (TV: Kerblam! [+]Loading...["Kerblam! (TV story)"])
Beckett Mariner, upon realising that River Song's friend was a time traveller, said that there would be a lot of paperwork about this. (GAME: A Trek to Skaro [+]Loading...["A Trek to Skaro (LiT story)"])
