    COVID19 stories

    Hopefully this is my one and only COVID19 story.

    I've been working on copiers for 31 years now, and have seen some truly strange things, but I think this qualifies as the most memorable:

    Today I headed out to a little soup & sandwich place, that I'd been out to before. The nice lady had given me delicious bowl of soup on the last visit. So I head out there today and the place looks dark (like every other business I go to lately). I see a banner behind the black truck in the driveway, that says: "We've Moved" and an address. I call the customer and confirm yes, they've moved 25 miles southeast, and yes, they did not mention it in the service call. I hang up and notice the woman with the bandanna and the pistol by my left front headlight.

    I buzz down the window and explain that I'm looking for the soup & sandwich place, and point to the sign on the building. She says: "They're not here." I say yes, I was just reading the new address. She says:" Well you'd better get out of my driveway then." I say I'd love to ... If you'd step aside. She grudgingly steps aside.

    The business owner tells me that it's his sister, and she was a few marbles short of the full batch before the COVID19 thing, but now she's completely lost it.

    I know quite a few of the COVID19 nuts that hoarded toilet paper, eggs, and milk, and they're mostly harmless, but this one did not impress me as harmless. I won't need to meet any more of this variety.

    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.
