It is the bane of all office workers everywhere - the paper jam.
OK, so I used to do tech support, which extended to printers, which, in turn, everybody seemed to extend to copiers too. Consequently, I got pretty good at un-jamming copiers. Which is a bit of a feat... I mean, there are so many doors and switches in there, and roller-roll-y things to turn... sometimes it's hard to find the jam.
Anyways, my totally random thought:
Whenever I'm opening up all of them side doors (and there always seems to be three side doors), I feel like I'm a magician, opening the three boxes so the the audience can see that my assistant isn't skewered by all the swords I just put in there. You know the trick I'm talking about, right?
OK.
Anyways, the copier works now, so feel free to use it.

"No, not again. I... why does it say paper jam when there is no paper jam? I swear to God, one of these days, I just kick this piece of shit out the window."
"You and me both man. That thing is lucky I'm not armed."
"Piece of shit."
(I know. Barely related. But any excuse to quote one of my favorite movies.)

OMG, I'm totally going to think of that everytime I'm trying to clear our fucked up Xerox Monster!

Nightmare revisited...
At 17- my first office job was a fax/copy girl. I cannot tell you how *many* times I almost threw the god damn thing out the freaking window.
