    yellow post it notes

    Today I spent several hours between the drive time and tearing apart an adf trying to check out a sensor problem. after having it apart several times I finally see a little bit of yellow color come into view, and here I am looking for a more major problem. Thanks for letting me rant.

    Just as bad as having to drive an hour and a half because users are to stupid to think to keep the scanning glasses (slit and bed) clean! Hate that!! I tell them to just use glass cleaner and clean it themselves!

    In my experience, most glass cleaner is useless against gum residue unless it contains alcohol. Alcohol prep pad work great. most offices have them in their first aid kits.

    I tell clients to use hand sanitizer (everybody has it), not only is it 70% alcohol but most have hand softener/emollients that helps keep the glass clean...

    I try to call my customers ( because the people in my office REFUSE to ask prelim questions.) to find out what the issue is. A lot of times I save my drive/repair time and the customer $$$$. The ONLY one that isn't happy in those situations is MY BOSS!

    I always like the messages from customers that say " There is something wrong with our copier, please come and fix it". Could they be any more vague? Lol

    My boss called me one Saturday that an executive at one of our major accounts was need a report printed to take with him to their corporate in Texas for a meeting Monday morning. I went there ans the executive met me at the door to let me in. Savin 8075 with tandem tray and 3000 sheet LCT and no letter size paper. Luckily I knew where they stored their paper. The exec was a local VP. Memo went out to all clerical people Monday that all paper trays on all copiers will be full by COB Fridays.

    So, your Saturday got disrupted just so you could load paper? That is a great use of a techs time.

    Whaaaat!, on your day off....
    On my day off I'd tell the boss , I'll fill the SOB's COB's paper trays for 50cent per sheet of paper. Refill their toilet rolls for $20 a roll, ...no problem.
