What should I do when I hear someone shredding? 9 hints left

Hint 1

After you escape from the photo lab --

Hint 2

-- it's only prudent to go to Security to tell Gray. Outside his door, however, you hear the sound of someone using the shredder. Hmm!

Hint 3

Go inside and ask Gray about it, however, and he is as uncommunicative as ever. Better come back when he's gone.

Hint 4

Go push the alarm, then come back to Security and investigate the shredder (in the left corner of the room when the door is to your right).

Hint 5

If you open the bin, you'll find a lovely pile of shredded paper. We need to reassemble this and find out what was so important.

Hint 6

For this, go to the staff lounge; on the left next to the bookcase, there's a clear workspace and a tape dispenser. Perfect!

Hint 7

One way to reassemble the shreds of paper is to first turn them all right side up (use the handwriting as your guide here), then look for pieces that join. All the red bits go together, for example, and they'll be on the left side of the page when it's done.

Hint 8

Still confused? Well, here's what it should look like when you get done. Amateurs have fewer pieces and masters have more, but the end result is the same.
