Puck Placement

Saturday, February 10th, was our annual Pink in the Rink night! The ice gets painted/dyed pink and this is another night that the players wear special jerseys that get auctioned off at the end of the night. Because of this, we had to print out certificates for each of those jerseys, but the printer in the office is always a little temperamental. I was tasked with sitting at the printer, taking out the cardstock when it got jammed on the right side, replace the paper in the drawer, and take the finished certificate out of the left side when it got jammed there.

I left at 11:30 again so I could get to my class.
