Why I Love Copy Machines

Author LucyB    Category Uncategorized     Tags

Some people think that being an administration assistant and having to stand at the copy machine for the better part of the day must be awful, but I beg to differ. Call me strange, but I love copying, and here’s why:

  1. Copy machines get me away from my desk and the phone, which has nasty, demanding people on the other end of the line. Usually they want some important, untraceable document by lunchtime.
  2. Copy machines are not complicated things to operate, so my mind can wander and think about other things, like what I’ll wear on my date tonight.
  3. Copy machines get me dates. You’d be surprised at the number of hot guys that will come up to you and start chatting when you’re just standing by the copy machine.
  4. Copy machines make me look good. Standing at the copy machine in a knee-length skirt and high heels, bending over to refill the paper tray, just looks hot. And that gets me dates (see above).
  5. Copy machines make me look like a genius. So many staff attempt to copy on their own, get hit with a paper jam, and come running to me for help. I put things right, and they’re impressed.
