And there's a good reason for that as you might suspect. I believe it has something to do with stopping the spread of germs and viruses. Nobody argues about the science. They still get sick, in spite of protocols far beyond multiple items of single use, certified medical equipment and procedures. You don't see them in the OR pulling a do rag out of their pocket and wrapping it around their face, yet our government says that is a mask and you will be OK. That is not any kind of science. It is feel good politics. The only real usefulness of most "masks" is it keeps you from picking your nose with an infected finger. What do you find in a clean nose? Fingerprints. That was one thing about working on printers, you stop picking your nose or really touching your face in any way. Also don't scratch your ass unless you are wearing black pants ;-) I started out changing ribbon and adding ink to cash registers. And we had to wear a tie and at least a sport coat. Quick education. I started with unit record equipment, big crunching machines with machines oil and ink everywhere. My mentor was the model CE. His tools and his tool bag was polished and he could do a rack and wheel job on a 557 without rolling up his sleeves. Me, on the other hand, looked like I was in an ink balloon fight for the first few months. I did get a lot better until I started working on big laser printers. When you have a transfer drum 3 feet in diameter you almost have to climb in to get the beads out if you have a gap seal failure, there is no way to avoid getting toner on the back of your shirt. I was really happy to get down here and have control of my 3800s. Nobody screwed them up and we had the best running three 3800s in the region. (Lowest maintenance hours, lowest parts cost). It was fish in a barrel tho. In DC we had about 50 of them, just in town/burbs and the whole Southern Region only had about 40 across 6 or 7 states. Those boys never got much experience. It was pretty much all I did for about 4 years. I used to look for a nice down system CPU call or something just to break the monotony. Never had to fix the laser printers. First job after I graduated was with Itel. We were interfacing a Siemens ND-2 printer to the IBM Channel. One beta test system was in a room with IBM 3800. Same performance. Approximately 30” a second print speed.But the drums were charged opposite of the 3800. Someone used the wrong toner and printed black with white letters. I heard that was a real mess to clean out the 3800. The only time it was really bad is when the gap seal didn't seal and the drum filled with beads. Other than that you could usually stay away from the bulk of the toner. |

Have you actually looked at the masks that they use in ORs? They are the cheap paper kind where air leaks through the mask and out of the sides. They are in effect sneeze shields. === A lot of doctors and dentists these days are wearing cloth masks over a paper mask. That just reinforces my point that masks ARE effective, and that people should wear them when in close contact with strangers. They certainly seemed effective in convincing you. |

Does he throw both of them away after each patient? Mine does, but he now charges an extra $7 per visit for additiional PPE costs. I can live with that. Before all of this mess, I never saw a doctor wearing a mask if it wasn't OR level surgery. They never did with dermatology level burning and cutting or putting in stitches although my dentist wore a face shield. Gloves were always pretty common tho. They even wear gloves to give you a shot. The ass doctor wears full PPE when they are scoping you tho. They look like welders. I think that is just to keep the ass juice off of them. My dentist has always worn a mask. I think my 'ass juice' was pretty clean after drinking a gallon of that **** they make you drink! I got a little too close to that when my wife had hers and it ain't pretty. They are pumping air in and if it's in there, it is coming out. |
