Narrative:
I was farmed-out to work on a-check crew in february 2009. I normally work the afternoon hangar crew. I was assigned to work on a job card for the main entry door girt bar fittings lube. I was not familiar with this job card and was taking my time. However; on the 7th door (2L) I got out of sequence with the procedure and accidentally partially deployed the slide on aircraft.
