Or better yet, the laminator. At my school there's only one person who is trained and allowed to use the laminator and she laminates 2x/week on a schedule. Except she doesn't actually stick to the schedule so I can't count on having the materials I need when I need them. This system was supposed to cut down on laminator breakdowns but it doesn't break down any less frequently than it used to. Now it just further adds to frustration because you can't always count on having the materials for a planned lesson when you need them and so you either have to use them without having them be laminated or come up with another lesson on the fly.

And no one sees the irony of a school which would rather withhold resources from teachers than teach them to use the laminator.  It's not actually that hard to use - our school had one - the problems usually happen when the machine has been crammed into a corner or badly positioned so that one can't access the back side easily to make sure nothing jams.  And also it helps if one puts directions out where people can see them.  Much smarter than limiting the use of this simple machine to one person.[/quote]
