2) demonstrate that you made some attempt to fix it.
3) if you're going to ask about jams include the jam code.

What was your biggest oopsy on a call??
this didnt happen to me, another tech relayed it to me. not really an oops, but its funny. If you've ever changed a HP 4000 tray 1 p/u asm separation pad asm, you will understand perfectly.
Tech in an office replacing the sep pad asm, there are 3 pressure springs that sit under it. 2 little ones 1 big one. anyway, one of the springs bounced out. The tech began looking all over the place for it. After about 5 minutes a secretary who had been watching him said, "are you looking for a little spring?" holding up her fingers to describe to him how long it is. "yes, how did you know?" he replied. "because its in your beard," she answered.Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways - Coke in one hand - chocolate in the other - body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "WOO-HOO, what a ride!".Comment

I wasn't going to use the second hand stories, but you started it.
A co-worker of mine was complaining bitterly that a customer of his had stolen his flashlight. Not borrowed or misplaced, but stolen. He just could not let it drop.
At this company our office girls did quite a bit of phone diagnostics. The same customer called the next day with a call for "won't duplex". Our office girl had the customer pull out the duplex tray, and what did they find? A flashlight.

Gorey Fusers
In my first few months I had been out in the field to replace a worn out fuser in a Toshiba 2860, I removed the fuser and returned to the shop. carrying the fuser in one hand and other parts in the other hand I reached out to open the door. I must have shifted the weight on the fuser incorrectly because it's metal edges sliced through my hand, fell on my knee, slicing open my pants and knee and then falling on my foot. The fuser was Ok! but I was bleeding like I'd just taken a bullet in the leg and my hand was gushing everywhere. It was then I found out just how poorly my employer at the time had stocked his first aide kit.Comment

trust me i know what i'm doing!
1) stripped a machine down again because of blank copies only to think, hey you dumb ass wheres the test chart!
2) 2 days ago - sent for jamming on a minolta 350. Burning smell on runs of 20 copies or more after testing. Stripped out the fuser, finisher, drums but couldn't pinpoint the smell in the machine. Smell was from the finisher then the fuser then the power supply. Thought can't leave it as the machine might be dangerous.
Had the machine in bits & turned off when i smelt the burning againbut the machine is turned off
Walked round the office smelling the air like a sniffer dog looking for drugs and discovered the builders next door were drilling into wood causing the buning smellComment

I've got one like that too, bangin.
It was in autumn, and I get a call for strange sounds from the copier. You know how it is trying to track down noises, I could be coming from anywhere. As I'm digging into the fuser with the power unplugged, I hear the sound again.
It was a bad blower motor for the furnace directly overhead. It was the first day that they had turned on the heat, and with the dust burning out of the furnace it smelled pretty bad too.
They called me for the same problem later on the same afternoon. "He left without fixing it!" =^..^=If you'd like a serious answer to your request:
