In a pinch, any kind of tape (packing tape works), snippets
of wire or string will work. I've even seen paper clips
bent around a bundle of wires. I imagine whoever did the
twisting had fingers of iron to manage that. It's a rare
office that doesn't have one of these things handy.
That said, cable ties are cheap and don't take up much space
in a tool kit so just keep a supply of them handy folks. :)
