Do you recall that I was banned from certain office equipment recently at work?
Many of you had kinds words, encouraging words, and you lifted me up out of the bottoms of despair, as I was extremely sad that I was banned from the new label maker. I was seriously thinking about trying out for the depression commericals for cymbalta. You, my dedicated friends, saved me. I appreciate your support. SOME of you called to remind me to leave the office equipment alone, I'm not calling names, but the initials are Dianna Moore, she loves me. I got a few text messages that told me to "Step away from the label maker". I took your advice and I am doing better. I've only looked at the label maker, not touched it.
You all wanted to know, "What did you do?"
True Answer: NOTHING. I was breathing that day.
This is the new shinny label maker that I am banned from.
This is the label maker I am allowed to currently use. It's not as fancy as the new one and its all scratched up AND the cutter doesn't work that great.
If I don't dot my i's and cross my t's, or watch my p's and q's I could be reduced to making labels with this...
Yes, this label maker belongs to the funeral home and is still in use today. We have two of these.
Remember that I am banned from the simple office equipment...
BUT
I am allowed to use the NEW COPY MACHINE. Why? Because THEY, the MEN, do not know how to use it. They DEPEND on me to figure everything out and teach them, the MEN, how to use it. Also, the MEN, do not pay attention to ME when I show them how to use it. This causes the MEN to call my name 240,090,049,204,293 times a day, I think I might not have counted each time my name was called, so that could be an incorrect number.
New Cannon Copier that I am allowed to use.
The new copier was delivered Monday by a really nice young lady. She even brought us donuts. I thought after meeting her that we could be friends.
Until...
She started talking paper. Where it comes from, brightness, weight, how the extreme heat and extreme cold constricts the paper causing it to jam your copier. I could have pointed out that I knew about the heat and cold and suggested for the last 7 seven years that the attic was NOT the place to store our paper and NO ONE listened to me, probably because I did not graduate from PAPER COLLEGE. I knew that I should have taken that full scholarship to PAPER COLLEGE way back in 1992.
Look at all the fun I missed out on.
Go figure.

That's just mean to hold something so shiny in front of you and say no touchie.
Go crazy and mix up the paper and watch your boss foam at the mouth.
