Technique learned 2

Tadah! I got upgraded again! Since Wilmer is leaving the company, which means 1 less person to do the shitty jobs, the buck got passed to me. Now I'm Ping Office Boy cum Writer-for-Livewell cum Logistics. So much cum(No pun intended. Seriously.) With so much work to do eg: Calling companies and ask them to send product samples to us but most likely NOT going to be published so that someone can bring them home, corresponding to companies to arrange deliveries, photocopying invoices, sending out magazine etc, there's hardly a dull moment. Hardly.

Moving into the segment proper, I'm sure this is what you all have been waiting for.

How to Photocopy Both Sides
**************************************************************************
1. Acquire the document(s) of interest for photocopying.

2. If the copier is not active, please ensure it is by pressing the 'on' button.

3. Lift cover, align desired page to copy face down and gently re-cover the lid. Neglecting this step will result in either printed pages with no ink, or when the lid makes a tremendous amount of noise, everyone in the office will turn and stare at you. Including the boss.

5. Check the feed tray to see if there is adequate blank paper. If not, please refill to maximum capacity for other people's usage too.

4. Press the 'start' button. If unable to find the start button, please use the sense called Sight to help you locate the button.

5. Wait for copier to work its magic.

6. Take copied sheet and check against original. If satisfactory, place it aside.

7. Now this is the tricky part. Reverse the page that was copied(because we're doing DOUBLE PAGES), and press the 'start' button on a FRESH PIECE OF PAPER.

8. Once copying is done, examine position and printing of the paper. You have to ask yourself these questions like, "Does it print on the bottom side? Does it print on the side going in first? Is the orientation correct?" because all copiers are not the same. Bear that in mind.

9. When the correct orientation has been achieved, insert the 1st copied sheet in the correct orientation and press 'start'.

10. Cross your fingers that your wild guessing prediction is correct.

11a. If yes, please proceed to 12.

11b. If no, please repeat step 7 onwards until you are able to reach 12.

12. Remove printed(both sides!) sheet and examine your handy work. Revel in its utter complexity, as well as its simplicity of double-sided photocopying. After that, place it aside, 1st page down so that the page order is not disturbed.

13. Repeat from step 3 onwards until all pages of interest have been photocopied(on double sides!).

Note: If your copier has option for 'double-sided printing' by auto feed, you can simply bypass step 3 onwards.

Viola~ Your very own stack of double sided copied papers! Wow, look at the clock! Looks like that's all the time we have this week. Tune in again next week for tips on How to Send Mail. Have a great week, Mr. Ping Office Boy cum Writer-for-Livewell cum Logistics signing off!
