Last week I was with one of the summer interns, and in the lobby, the receptionist was
complaining that her printer wasn't working. The intern messed around with it and discovered
the problem. A pen was stuck inside, causing it to jam.
He started to fiddle with it, and tried sticking his fingers down inside to get the pen, but I told
him we didn't have time for that right now. I told him to put a note on the printer telling folks
not to use it, and we would report it to the help desk.So he grabs a piece of paper and starts to write the note down. I left before he finished the
note, so I wondered why not even 20 minutes later, I got a call from one of my techs. He said
that he had found the note on the printer, and was slightly concerned. Not understanding why,
I asked him to bring the note to me. What could possible cause a concern about a jammed
printer. Seeing the note, I understood why:
"DONOT TOUCH P*NIS INSIDE!"
