Today I was plunged into the the world of the grand-daddy digital copier (which looks almost exactly like this only slightly smaller--it's still a beast) because the woman who makes all the copies for the teachers was out sick today. The teachers were in a panic and so was I. After a slight learning curve I figured things out (it has a computer touch screen that sort of walks you through things) and got my mojo down. I brought my iPhone into the work room and played music while the copier cranked out about 4000 copies! It was unbelievable. I don't think I would want to do that all the time, but it's kind of cool to know how to work this machine (it collates, staples, does your taxes, makes breakfast and irons shirts!) and to have a slight change of pace. My dogs are barking though. I need a pair of shoes made from that squishy black rubber they use for those mats the greeters at Costco stand on. Hasn't anyone invented those yet?
**Have you ever used such a machine?
Did you know it can make 85 copies in a minute?**

I like your labels. They always make me smile....working girl :o)
Jill, I love your blog. I really should comment more. Just wanted to tell you that this post really made me laugh. Idea for footwear: when I do long canning sessions in the fall, I wear crocs. It's the only time I ever wear them, but they're SO comfy and remind me of that material you talked about. Just an idea in case you're ever on copier duty again!
Scary!!! I can barely use the church copier.
Reminds me of an episode of The Office.
Those copiers are intimidating. I'm glad you can bring your phone to listen to. Maybe I can steal you a mat to stand on :)
You are hilarious. I would be terrified of that thing jamming and having to open the belly of the beast and stick my arm in. Copiers are scary.
Now THAT is spitting out copies.
It even irons shirts? I'll bet it scorches them :0)
HOLEY MOLEY!!!
this is amazing- I am so so afraid of the school copier.
WAY TO GO
That really is a beast. I used to be master of the copier at work, but that was 13 years ago, so... I'm sure things have changed a lot since then!
I totally laughed when you said your dogs are barking.
Jill, my step-mom loves fit flops. She's had problems with her feets and joints and she came across fit flops and they are the only things she will wear. They're spendier but she says it worth it. She says the best place to get them is Amazon b/c you can find them between $30-$50 instead of $70-$80 in stores. Supposedly they are supposed to help tone your rear but I don't know if that really works. All I know if I tried on a pair of hers and it totally reminded me of the black mat you are talking about.
We have a super cool copier at work but I barely know how to use it.
I love your posts, you always crack me up.
That copier sounds very much like the one where I work. I have made friends with it, but now we're getting a new one come January. Good grief.
I wish I had a machine that would tell me what to make for dinner.
you are funny! they have tire huaraches in mexico and they last for ever and ever they are good cushion but to walk? another different story! My ride is here, talk to you later......
you can do it missy!
