Funny Printer Repair + “smelly” Pantry

Today want to share two interesting stories in my office.

1. Funny Printer Repair

In the morning, I thought that my day will be digging into the drawing again. However, an incident happens! The Samsung laser printer at my side is suddenly not functioning. The office girl cannot print her stuff. Here I come… Now I can be a manufacturing engineer and can apply the course I took – Design for Assembly!!

First, I try to disassembly the printer and found that one paper stuck inside. This printer is not a good design because it is hard to disassembly and uses too many fasteners (screws)!! But what is good is it used same size and length screws. So happy because can apply what I learned…haha…

After taking out the paper, I carefully do assembly all the parts. Then I push “ON” button…it shows ERROR signal!! I checked all the connecting cable and reinstall the printer, it still not functioning. I feel so shameful…I worked on it until lunch and this problem still on my head!!

After lunch, my Filipino “teacher” suddenly shouting

“What is that?” with her finger pointing at the table at my back.

SHIT!!! That is the toner of the printer!! No wonder the printer is damn not functioning…I install it back to the position and it is done!! What a funny experience!!

Ok…take a short break before my second story…

I forgot to introduce my lovely Filipino “teacher”. She has a very high class name --- Beverly. Ms. Beverly is originally from Philippines and has a 20 years old son.


2. “Smelly” Pantry

This story is related to Ms. Beverly too. After lunch, Ms. Beverly keep complaining about the pantry has weird smell. She is so confirm that is the smell of DEAD MOUSE. But everyone in the office not smells anything. Today I have bad 感冒,so I hardly smell something weird…

Since Ms. Beverly really cannot “tahan” and keep shouting around, the project director, Mr. Jeffery gives me and Min one big torchlight and ask us to check where is the smell come out. (Min is another trainee)

After check on all the floor and cabinet, nothing is found. Then, we open up the ceiling cover…the “funny” smell suddenly comes out!! We quickly use torchlight to seek inside, but still…found nothing!!

Now confirm that “something” is on the ceiling or even in the water tank!!! Tomorrow there will be an expert come to check. If found “something” in water tank, all of us must go for injection!! Because our drinking water come from…

There is a misery left today…The truth will be revealed tomorrow!!
