At our business we use some pretty high-tech equipment - digital printers, plotters, servers, the "monster” computer, phone systems, time clocks, fire alarms - not to mention some "high-class" software (this adjective is from a person who was not born into the digital age).

But I had to laugh when I walked into the back room the other day and found our installer vacuuming the vacuum cleaner with the shop vac!. The filter was clogged with dirt, and the machine had dumped a bunch of crud on the lobby carpet. Now there's some ingenuity!

You never know what to expect next in a small business!
