Slow Day


Q Can you please help with the photocopier?

R Sure, I will be right there.

Q Is this the only copier you have in the library?

R No ma'am there is one downstairs.

Q Oh. Well I did not see it.

R This is the only one that takes cash though, the one downstairs only accepts a print card.

Q I just can't seem to get this to work, I put my quarter in. What does this (points to a flashing U 2 )mean?

R Here you go ma'am, your quarter fell through, sometimes the new ones do that.

Q This is not a new one.

R Well do you have any other quarters?

Q Yes.

Q What does this (points to a flashing U 2 )mean?

R It just means that is ready to copy.

Q It only printed one copy when I told it to print three.

R You only put in one quarter ma'am, it is fifteen cents a page.

Q Alright. Thanks for your help.


Observation: Really, it has been an excrutiatingly slow day. Thank god for little busywork projects.
