    Okay... I did NOT need that mental picture, although I will admit to having a good laugh.

    I've always thought it should work that way to begin with, though. Think about it - your pecker has been in your pants all day {insert favorite exception here} god only knows where your hands have been... which are you more worried about keeping clean, safe, and germ free?

            With your previous comedic gold posts, I was expecting a hilarious story to ensue. No such luck this time, and I can't say I'm disappointed based solely on the subject at hand.

              The washing is the easy part, using the hot air blow drier is the difficult bit.
              At least 50% of IT is a solution looking for a problem.

                  Not this time, although once I did gather a few strange looks when I split the back seam out of my pants and asked where the bathroom was and if I could borrow a stapler..

                    I guess it all depends on where the air drier is mounted if you have the one mounted on the floor and you put your hands down into it , that could work. Dropping a handstand in front of the wall mounted ones could be done, but if they are opperated by movement sensor then you would have to work out a way to jiggle up and down ...

                      When you sit down at a restaurant, look at the menu, and ask to speak to the manager... "Can I swap out that fuser for you? Seriously... It's bugin' me"

                        You know you're a real copy tech when someone gives you a full colour printout and can not only tell it wasn't printed by your primary brand but can pretty reliably tell what brand printed it and possibly even the model just by looking at it...

                          As luck would have it......we had copiers in a lot of the garment factories up here and over in ALA.
                          While working on a big old Toshiba ( coated paper, liquid ) it happened . All the secretaries laughed.
                          One of the secetaries put me in a closet: I handed out the ripped pants and she took them to be stitched up : then brought them back so I could finish the service call.

                            I use a hammer and a flathead screwdriver. I usually carry the screwdriver, but have to ask the customer for the hammer. The first time they look at me strange and go "What do you need the hammer for?". Sometimes I reply "I can't seem to find what's wrong with the machine..."

                              Yes the above quote is only too true.
                              My bank statments come to me each month and the fuser unit is gone in their machine. I know the model as it's a machine brand we work on from time to time, but our hands are tied up in contract so I can't go there directly and fix it....
