In Every Relationship, There’s Give And Tray
(I am the submitter of Wireless and Clueless. My other users are similarly… challenged. Today, I hear a lot of slamming and bashing. So, I follow the sound to the printer at the end of my aisle, where one of my trouble users is kicking and slamming the printer.)
Coworker: “F***ing thing won’t print!”
Me: “Dude. Calm down. Beating it up won’t help.”
Coworker: “But it won’t print! I need this report to be submitted today, but this f***ing thing won’t print!”
Me: “Does the display say ‘PC Load Letter’?”
Coworker: “Yeah. But what the f*** does that mean?”
Me: “What does the next line say?”
Coworker: “Tray 4.”
Me: “Uh huh…”
Coworker: “Where’s tray 4?”
Me: “It’s the big door at the bottom.”
Coworker: “I didn’t put paper there.”
Me: “That’s where the printer wants it. Give it what it wants.”
Coworker: “Are you sure this is a printer, and not my girlfriend?”
