DO IT YOURSELF

WHEN A GUY'S PRINTER TYPE

BEGAN TO GROW FAINT,

HE CALLED A LOCAL REPAIR SHOP

WHERE A FRIENDLY MAN

INFORMED HIM THAT THE

PRINTER PROBABLY NEEDED

ONLY TO BE CLEANED.

BECAUSE THE STORE CHARGED

£40 FOR SUCH CLEANINGS,

HE TOLD THE GUY HE MIGHT

BE BETTER OFF READING

THE PRINTER'S MANUAL

AND TRYING THE JOB HIMSELF. 

PLEASANTLY SURPRISED

BY HIS CANDOR, HE ASKED,

"DOES YOUR BOSS KNOW THAT

YOU DISCOURAGE BUSINESS?" 

"ACTUALLY, IT'S MY BOSS'S IDEA,"

THE EMPLOYEE REPLIED SHEEPISHLY.

"WE USUALLY MAKE MORE MONEY

ON REPAIRS IF WE LET PEOPLE

TRY TO FIX THINGS

THEMSELVES FIRST."
