          Re: How Long Servicing Office Equipment

          Started as a part time tech besides college doing liquid electrostats with ZnO paper. That was 43 years ago. It made me seriously nuts. Even my bad dreams go around office equipment. I dreamed last night that I had to warranty service on a fax belonging to an old lady complaining that she only receives half images on her faxes. Looked at the paper and it turned out that she had cut the sheets in half to save paper.

          I told you I became seriously nuts from this job and I have only bad dreams about it. I never have good dreams.............

                      29 years ago I started talking to pretty secretaries (receptionists) and quickly learned to turn on the vacuum cleaner when I needed to fart while in an office full of women. I occasionally fixed a copy machine or two.

                        29 years in the copier field, I was approached by my boss in 1985, before that I was a electronic Technician in the shop as a bench technician for 6 years, for a grand total of 35 years in service!

                        My first experience with copiers was Savin liquid copiers, spent over 5 weeks in Atlanta for training over a 2 year period!

                                I have posted here before, but now the time has come to hang up the tools.
                                I started as a typewriter mechanic in 1965, and (except for 3 years) have been in this industry since.
                                Seen many changes, mostly positive, and certainly would not like to go back to the 'good old days'.
                                I'm sure to miss the challenges, but may find another way to pass the time.

                                All the best to you, as fellow techs. May your customers be kind to you.

                                John
