    Winter. Sweating as you walk in the door is majorly unappealing.

    I dont do field service any more but when I did..

    I can remember travelling on the hot stuffy Nothern Underground Line in London, thinking my next call has got to be better than this..

    You get there and its some small stuffy office that has air conditioning that's not turned on and there's no windows open.

    You wonder are these people on some kind of endurance test or what..



    I would go for spring or autumn.

    I also get that. Why pay big bucks for a SPA and sauna when you can get that while working for free?

    Funny Story

    It was late August, maybe 1993. I don't remember why, but Fred & I headed out to work on a Mita DC-111C at this church.

    It had to be 100+F outside, and the church had no air conditioning. This was back in the days when we still wore white shirts, ties, and suit jackets. Needless to say we were dying.

    The church office was small, so we only brought in Fred's tools. The pastor was also working in the office, so to make room I "supervised" from the hallway.

    I got to noticing the posters hung up around this church, particularly the ones that said "God doesn't care about your sexual orientation ... "

    So the pastor says "You look really hot. Don't stand on formality. Go ahead and take off your jacket, loosen your tie." So Fred does. Then he says "You can loosen up your shirt ... " and Fred starting to peel off his shirt.

    I'm finding this particularly entertaining but this has got to stop, so I call Fred out into the hallway and quietly point out one of the posters on the wall. It takes a few minutes for him to connect the dots.

    I don't think I have ever seen Fred move faster to finish a call. And I don't think he ever took off his jacket on a call either. I still laugh, thinking of it. =^..^=
    If you'd like a serious answer to your request:
    1) demonstrate that you've read the manual
    2) demonstrate that you made some attempt to fix it.
    3) if you're going to ask about jams include the jam code.
    4) if you're going to ask about an error code include the error code.
    5) You are the person onsite. Only you can make observations.

    That is kind of unfair to the pig. Can someone remove the spammer.
