Hi brothers,
* I walked in the APOffice this afternoon, and found the metal shelves
by the yellow wall entry to the back APOffice ('ween the Grey PAINTS
cabinet, and the floor to ceiling green chalk board) bent out with much
of the card and envelopes on the floor.
* If you know how this happened, please let us know, so we learn what
not to do in the future.
The adjacent couch was away from the wall, with some of the stock
behind it. This makes me wonder if someone tried to move the
shelves from the middle? Perhaps to get at the cables behind them?
* PFTGOTO: it's is best to move tall furniture from the bottom, with a one or
more people balancing the top.
* PFTGOTO: if you are aware of a safety issue in the APOffice, send
email to
apo-news@mit.edu
* The contents of the shelves are now temporarily in four boxes. They
are HEAVY and flimsy. PLEASE be careful if you have to move them.
* Molly came by the APOffice, and as Press Shop Manager said we would
not try to fix the shelves, but would replace them.
* I suggest AX get heavy duty rolling shelves like the three SWE has
in their corner. But with five or six shelves each.
It also be good to replace the scrapbook shelves with rolling
shelves, so repair and maintenance of that radiator would be
easier.
* I plan to take the old shelves apart, and take the pieces home.
