One of my duties at work was to setup, maintain, and calibrate fiber optic filament fusion splicers.
We designed a cart to carry the splicer, computer, monitor, keyboard, and related gear from work station to work station.
Naturally, it had a power strip attached to power up all the equipment.
We had one operator who plugged the power strip into itself and placed an emergency trouble call because her splicer would not work.
Even after several of us attempted to explain why that would not work, she continued to do it, so once or twice a week I had to drop what I was doing to go plug the power strip into a wall outlet.
