KawiZX900 0 #4 May 1, 2003 YES!!! and complain about how freakin long this file is taking to print, Just say your making copies of a proposal or somthin, then fax it to all your friends..!!! no shit. go fer it, Accelerate hard to get them looking, then slam on the fronts and rollright beside the car, hanging the back wheel at eye level for a few seconds.

Dragontail 0 #5 May 1, 2003 It all depends on if your employer minds. Some are funny about it while others like to allow it once in a while. I mean, where I work it's been said that it costs more money to police the activities of the employees than what it costs to let them do what they want (barring abuse of course). Asking first probably wouldn't be a bad idea. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skydivelynn 1 #7 May 1, 2003 QuoteIt's like REALLY LONG. Eighty-four pages. But if you use both sides of the paper its only 42 pages. You'll be doing them a favor. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dragontail 0 #8 May 1, 2003 Well, if you're faxing copies.....Ethically, that's a lot of paper and toner. I think for that I would ask first if for no other reason than to show respect. I guess when you look at it all, it looks like a bunch of posturing bullshit, but I prefer to let others piss my boss off Of course that's just my opinion. It seems to work for me Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kris 0 #9 May 1, 2003 Well, you do work at a newspaper. If you're going to do it, do it right. Send the output directly to the main presses.

skydiverbob 0 #13 May 1, 2003 Sure, I printed the entire SIM, consider it payback for the raise you surely deserve and didn't get, or if nothing else, bring in your own paper.Who Dares Wins Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hawkbit 0 #15 May 1, 2003 Ethically? No... Realistically? Yes Have I done it? Yes... ... Everything over 2 pages I have found that relates to skydiving, including the SIM (twice... 1 single sided, the other duplex). ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "You don't quit playing because you get old, you get old because you quit playing" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nacmacfeegle 0 #16 May 1, 2003 Okay, seeing as how you asked..... Why do you need a hard copy? If its just for your own records fine, but if you have a PC at home, whats the point? If its so you can have a copy that you can refer to at the DZ, thats fine also. Me? I have a neat wee PDA which is really just a posh MP3 player. I have Acrobat, Excel, and Word readers on it, so I have a memory stick with the protrack and dytter manuals, my Odessy manual, my Canopy manual, my camera and portable DVdeck manuals, and various other cool documents I probably have no need whatsoever for. I also have a back up logbook, with scans of my licenses, membership cards, rig inspection history, etc too. I don't maintain a paper log book anymore, are you getting the picture?.Speaking of which it also has pics of the Minime on it, and if the loads are running slow I can chill to my choons, or watch videos from skydivingmovies.com on it too.Its a Sony Clie and its about the size of a music tape cassette. You need a PC to process the files for it though.... -------------------- He who receives an idea from me, receives instruction himself without lessening mine; as he who lights his taper at mine, receives light without darkening me.

skydiverbrian 0 #22 May 1, 2003 QuoteThis is just an ethical question. Chances are, you're getting not getting paid enough anyway, or there's better benefits they could offer but don't. So go ahead and print it. In fact, print two or three copies. It'll all break even in the end.

Ouch, not fair, not nice, evil Skyluddite!Actually its quite easy, I click on the icon thingies in the explorer thingie, drag them onto the synching folder thingie, then press the wee button thingie on the PDA cradle. How the images jump down the cable thingie is a mystery to me. And I'm totally bamboozled by the IR transfer thingie. -------------------- He who receives an idea from me, receives instruction himself without lessening mine; as he who lights his taper at mine, receives light without darkening me.

RevJim 0 #24 May 1, 2003 Do it! Make sure you print out just the odd pages first, then flip the stack and print the even pages. You'll get a nice book that way. it might take a couple of tries to get it just right, but don't worry, it's the works paper and ink! It's your life, live it!
