Is it turned on?...


I had a good one yesterday!... 2nd floor, printer doesn't work... no power. I ask if they've checked the power "yes, of course" ..someone else rings up 5 minutes later (I OBVIOUSLY need to finish my coffee before I go take a look, like any GOOD it person) she says, i've noticed that the powerboard that the printer is plugged in to doesn't have a red light on it... I asked her if she'd checked the plug "YES...OF COURSE"... OK, coffee finished, I pop down.. sure enough, no lights on the printer, no lights on the powerboard.. I follow the cable back to the power outlet in the wall, right next to her chair... OFF... I flicked it on, looked at her and walked off... nothing else need be said!...


I noticed the same sort of thing going on "inside the mind of a Geordie Monkey"

You kinda wonder how these people get on in just normal day to day life. I mean, how do they get on with buying tube tickets and basic simple things like that if switching a power plug at the wall is a task for them. Baffling!
