{ Out Holes }
-ExcellentAnother little bizzare situation. To use the computers in the library you have to sign-in first at the Reservation Computer. There's a little scanner thingy on one side, to scan your library card, and little receipt printer thingy on the other side that prints out your computer reservation. Simple. I'll even admit that the first time you use the computer it can be annoying and confusing, but it's not rocket science. You click the button, you scan your card, it spits out a receipt.
Problem is that the computer is also used to pay for print jobs from the actual usage of the computers. A woman was in, used her library card to get on the computers, and printed a bunch of stuff. She signed herself in with no problems - obviously she knew how the computer worked. But..... when she tried to print her documents she somehow got her library card jammed into the little slot on top of the receipt printer. How the fuck did that happen? All that I can figure is she was trying to “pay” for her print job with her library card, like a credit card reader. Someone needs a lesson on “in holes” and “out holes.”
