    Started in 2001. 18 with braces. I Sorta knew the owner. He asked me if I wanted to work on copiers. I said sure. I was washing dishes at the time. He gave me a xerox XE-80 with an error code, and the manual. I took it apart, put it back together. Thank-you mom for the Legos when I was little. Then I read the manual. The cooling fan plug was swapped with another connector. I got the job. Ever since they keep throwing me in deeper water to see if I can swim. Copiers, printers, scanner, faxes, and the occasional paper shredder. All makes, models and speeds.

                            fix the customer first then fix the machine... its simple and makes life more easy.

                                23 Years now, and (feel free to call me a mad man ) i still like my job

                                Every day a new challenge... who of a boring clerk can say this about his job?
                                If sometimes you feel a little useless, offended and depressed always remember that you were once the fastest and most victorious sperm of hundreds of millions!
