Can’t Follow The Paper Trail
College & University | Learning
| July 20, 2014
(I work as a lab supervisor in a small private college. My lab has about 80 computers split into four rooms sharing two printers. Many students there are very computer-challenged.)
Student: “My paper didn’t print.”
Me: “Which printer?”
(The student names the printer so I direct her to the room its in. Thirty seconds later the student returns.)
Student: “It’s not there. The printer says it’s out of paper but I don’t think that’s the problem.”
Me: “Let’s take some paper just in case.”
(It was out of paper.)
