Joe Tucker: Bringing Efficiency to Ohio
Joe Tucker likes telling the story of his first press check, back when he was handling print procurement for the state of Ohio. A state motorcycle map was on press, and he and some others were inspecting a press sheet when he spotted a little problem.
"The word 'motorcycle' was misspelled," says Tucker, now state printing administrator. "Finally I got up enough nerve—because I'm the new guy—and I said, 'that's not the way you spell motorcycle.' " He laughs at the memory. "The first press check I went on I stopped the presses."
