    Also on the theme of being a tech, how many of you have done the saleman's job but never got the same rate of commission/payment?

    I got the first one from the optics overheat fuse on a Xerox 5114 during training. Oops, did we forget to mention that turning the machine off doesn't remove current from the exposure lamp circuit?

    I hit one of the fuser lamp terminals on a Lanier 6550 (Toshiba) and learned real quick what a hazard neutral switched circuits are. I also learned the metal case of a Ricoh Katana developer assembly carries developer bias, and was never so thankful as when the machine shut down and threw a bias leak SC code.

    Never did the tie thing - I try not to wear them for customers that have become regulars...
