It was a hectic time this last week! Getting ready for the MSCS AGM became super stressful when my laser printer kept going offline...
- 75 pages of the Essential Digital Skills for Senors - 5 - m73 page double sided packages to be printed (full color)
- 25 copies of the Agenda Package
- Grant Reports
- Program Progress Reports
and the Laser Printer kept stopping!
Marv thinks he is my in‑house tech support! This is both hilarious and catastrophic in equal measure.
Picture this scene:
- He strolls across the keyboard with the confidence of a seasoned IT consultant
- Opens seventeen windows you didn’t know existed
- Toggles airplane mode for reasons known only to him
- Sits directly on the printer because “warm box good”
- Leaves a fine layer of floof on every vent, port, and button
And when the printer goes offline again, he gives you that look:
“Human, clearly you broke it.”
Honestly, though, he’d probably fix the problem by accident. One well‑timed tail swipe and suddenly the printer is back online, the static IP is perfect, and Windows 11 is behaving. He takes full credit, of course. And he DEMANDS hugs...No photos though, so I guess I can never prove it really happened...
I wish he would learn to use the vacuum cleaner...
Today I shall be reassigning the printer to a static port...how it 'lost" that assignment, I shall never know.

ReplyDeleteAw, Barb, we should all have such resident assistance!!! I bet the hugs melted away most of those cares. At least for as long as it lasted! Good luck with the rest... YAM xx
