    Re: Broken heart and pockets

    Really sorry to hear about your upcoming surgeries, but I'm sure you'll be fine. I'm a firm believer in everything happening for a reason, all of what you're going through now will make you a stronger person in the long run, I know I'm stronger and more compassionate to others after all the crap that life has thrown at me. You just have to keep on getting up when life knocks you down.
    I'm not sure how I've helped, but you know where I am if you need to vent, I shall try to be on-line a bit more than I have been recently

      Keep on keeping on, nmfaxman.

      Thank for keeping us informed. It sounds like you've got a plan. =^..^=
      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.

            Good news and bad news.
            Ran into a guy that runs a non profit for veterans is more than willing to help with emergency money and help me get a job after surgery.
            He remembered me from a subcontract job I did years ago.

            Bad news: Surgery August 3. Condition has gotten worse. Recovery is minimum 3 months now.

            I actually miss working every day solving problems.
            After 30 years doing office equipment, I miss the challenge and the self pat on the back for solving something that kicks everyone`s ass.

            I will be logging in a lot while I am laid up.
            If I can find an answer to a problem I will be posting possible solutions.

            Might as well keep busy researching when I can't get my hands dirty.

            Thank you all for your continued support. Means a lot to me right now.
            Why do they call it common sense?

            If it were common, wouldn't everyone have it?

                      The employment situation seem to be serious in most parts of the world. Here in my country, out of the about 400,000 university graduates passed each year, only about 100 thousand get jobs in the formal sector, with the government absorbing largest number, not even the private sector can absorb all the remainder. I am yet to know the real cause of this worldly unemployment, but i can't rule out the rapid advances in technology especially the computer & IT industry....robotics taking over jobs meant for humans, as being main culprit.

                        Phase 2 completed. Surgery went well.
                        Now 3 months recovery and hopefully back to turning screwstick and fixing netwoks.

                        Thanks again for all the support.

                              First real try to get back to work.
                              Moving very slow and tire easy.
                              The 4 surgeries over 4 months has been a living nightmare with real pain.
                              Wounds are mostly tight and hard to stretch them back out.
                              Going to request PT to recover faster.
                              Applied for disability online with SS. Holding my breath. (Yeah Right?)
                              Dying to get back what I lost when this all started.
                              Ex Navy and I am loosing my balance. Good thing, I only fell once and just dropped like a WWE wrestler.
                              Nothing broken, didn't even spill my milk.

                              I also want to apologize to anyone I may have offended while I was living this nightmare.
                              Pain, painkillers and depression are a nasty combination.

                              Do I enjoy my career as a copyguy?
                              Did 2 simple calls today and rebuilt 2 fusers.
                              Muscle sore, but the best day I have had in months.
                              I love what I do for the challenges, free movement out of an office and meeting people(even the worst ones, they create some great stories.
                              Why do they call it common sense?

                              If it were common, wouldn't everyone have it?

                                Good to hear from you Faxman, sounds like your over the hump and now on the down hill run. And remember, when it all gets too much for you find an old copier and belt the bejazuz out of it with a bloody big hammer. It does wonders for stress relief!
                                At least 50% of IT is a solution looking for a problem.
