Followers of this blog will recall the fire I set a couple of weeks ago in the mailroom. Unbelievably, on Friday I was asked to help in there again. No flames this time, mainly because I was asked to run a different machine.Oh, yes, I was asked to run the tabbing machine, a machine I had never run before. We were in a hurry, trying to get a job tabbed and addressed and to the Post Office by the end of the day Friday. Too bad we didn't start until about 3:30.
Tabbing went pretty well for a few minutes, then I managed to create a huge jam in the machine. No one had given me the critical info about the location of the "off" switch, so that just made matters worse. See photo at right.
Everything got sucked up in that thing! Stephen cleared the jam for me and got me going again. Another jam, little brother of the first jam. I was then released from duty until the whole problem could be fixed. Needless to say, the job didn't make it to the Post Office on Friday. It's now Monday morning and I think we're about to go back in there to try to finish it. Stay tuned.

I bow to your computer wizardry, but I feel you should not be allowed within touching distance of other mechanical things. I love you, but it's what I think.
