So I was the network admin for a mining company, and we had just opened another office about 45 minutes drive from the office I normally worked in. The second day the new office was open I got a call;
“The printers aren’t working.”
Me: “Have you checked all the cables?”
“Yes, everything is hooked up. We checked twice.”
I run user through the printer checklist.
“It’s still not working, I think you’ll have to come down and fix it”
…45 minutes later
Me: “Well, here’s your problem, the power cable was on the shelf.”
“I thought we had wireless?”
Yeah, wireless electricity. I guess we have a Tesla coil in the printer room…
