"What we are going to do now is we are going to pull the clothes out of the dry cleaning machine and what we have here is it has a vacuum on the door so if I open the door it will be sucking the air in here so the fumes do not come out. What we are going to do is pull all the clothes out and we are going to separate these later on. This is the next load of clothes that we are going to put in. This is for today. What we are going to do is we are going to close the door and we are going to choose the process we want which this is going to be a white load so we are going to use clear solvent in it. So what we are going to do is we are going to start the machine and it is going to put solvent into the dream and it is going to start the mechanical action of the solvent to go through the fabric. What we are going to be doing now is we have pulled the dry cleaning out of the dry cleaner and what has to be done is it needs to be separated to go to the right pressing station. So what we are going to do now is we are going to hang this jacket up right here. We have got shirts, pants, and what not. The shirts, jackets, skirts, silks, all that stuff are going to be sent to the silk station and then we take the pants and fold them and hang them over the pants horse to be pressed later. Once again we come back to the ticket. We wash everybody's clothes together unless specifically specified that we have a customer who comes through and wants his stuff solely done by itself. What we have here is the ticket is pinned to the clothes and what we will do is go through the pressing process and we will use the ticket to find the customer's order and hang it back up on their order."
