You should watch the Whang! Video on Brian Peppers! It’s actually pretty sad

Oh I’ve practiced so much, I can focus now. I have to meet a lot of “strangers” every day for my job.

Also, I got a book called “how to win friends and influence people”. I’ve been practicing all the techniques the book teaches on people and it absolutely works. I haven’t read a book since high school. It’s very well written!

Edit: the book specifically talks about sales a lot. That book is especially useful for sales.

If I’m making eye contact with you, I have no idea what you’re saying.

This is why I tell people I was diagnosed in high school, and I give them the name of a well known doctor that retired around that time.

I always recommend Brother because of repairability, I’m not just saying it because everyone does. The fuser in your copier heats up and cools down all the time and will fail eventually. Same with the transfer belt, drums, and feed tires. Luckily, Brother clearly labels everything and they’re all easy to replace.

Counter that with HP. Depending on the model, (I’m looking at you M477/457) when your fuser fails step one is to take just about the whole machine apart. Some consumer grade Canon copiers are HP is disguise! (it’s actually the other way around)

My opinion here is not to be confused with office copiers, with the exception of HP, they can all fall off a cliff. Their laptops and desktops can go too, the world would be a better place.

I work on office photocopiers for a living.

The office copiers are awesome! When you print in black and white, most models will physically disengage the colors and only print in black and white to save toner and wear on the drums/transfer assembly.

Most desktop laser copiers do the same thing.

Laser copiers don’t use ink, they use toner which is a powder instead of a liquid. They’re temperature sensitive, but there aren’t nozzles to get clogged.
