what I learned in college

I learned a lot from my years in college.
These things I brought with me to the "real world".
Its amazing how useful the information is. By using the lessons I learned from college, I work faster and more efficiently in the office.
I just impressed one of my bosses in the copying room a while ago. He was having problems loading paper on the bypass tray of the photocopying maching. It seems that the paper keeps on getting stuck inside the machine and when its entering the machine.
I picked about 1/4 of a ream of paper. Held it on both sides, ran my fingers on the edge of the bunch, held one corner of the 1/4 ream and flipped it back and forth to create that slanted stack of papers effect. I then levelled the stack papers on its edge by letting it fall the table and made that humming sound of an even bunch of new paper, thus dislodging the pieces of papers from possible "sticking together" mess that causes the photocopying process.
I would like to thank the nice photocopying ladies of the hume building, grove and physci by teaching me the one lesson I could bring from college to real llife.
My Boss was impressed by "the technique' by which I prevented delays in the photocopying room.
