Master Thread of Pet Peeves

There was covid outdoor bris that had a zoom for family.
The laptop was set down in a shady spot angled down.
When the mohel came and set up, he looked for a shady spot.
Happened to be in the line of the laptop camera and no one realized till after...

Are you asking about them taking close up footage of the actual procedure? Or just general picture of the proceedings? Because some of the most fascinating candid (in a good way) photos I've seen are from brissim.

There is a joke there but won't be appropriate.

Opening accounts at a CU and it hits a 64 account limit. I guess their software is pre 2k.

When you try cancelling a print job on a printer, but no matter what you do, it still prints.

and then when you turn on the printer the next day, it prints one more

Printers in general are a pain when they don't connect or take a million years until it prints out a page or the page sizes are wrong.

Anyway, "net stop spooler" in CMD should clear anything pending
Then you have to restart it with net start spooler

Tell me about it. I deal with printing many documents etc. on a daily basis. Not fun to say the least.

First take all the paper out of the tray, then cancel the job until it's really canceled.

Then there will be an error that there is no paper. You open the drawer, there is a pop up that the drawer is open. You press the X to cancel the print job, it says cancelling print, and then proceeds to print the document.

I usually power it off,  after pressing the cancel button. Then, once I power it on, it's usually cleared.

You gotta monitor the print queue and only put the paper back once it's cleared. Turn the printer on and off, restart the computer, blowtorch them both etc.

Whatever it takes!

Spend 3 hours trying to figure out how to stop the print just to save a paper.

Yup. I was once helping an elderly man fix his printer that had a paper jam. After I fixed it, around 50-100 copies came out... He didn't let me cancel it. Just said I should wait. He chucked all the papers as they were the same, and he told me that he kept pressing the print button since it wasn't printing... Lol

Everyone's gotta learn about the print queue sometime
