Bright idea sparkey!
Hi there! pretty much my first post here, so here goes:
I just had this wonderful conversation with an Air ConditioningCowboy Engineer which really brightened my day. Well, I laughed at him anyway.
(Background: Before I started working here the aircon was plumed in badly and leaks, so engineers were arranged to come in to fix it. They didn't carry out any kind of survey or impact assessment whatsoever, just turned up and away they go. They're running the condensation pipes out through the electrical cabinet in the comms room)
AC Engineer: I need to switch your comms room AC off so that the glue on the condenser pipes can set.
Me: No
AC Engineer: If the water flows the glue won't set.
Me: What's the alternative?
AC Engineer: Leave the comms room window open over the weekend, its cold enough outside to cool the room.
Me: dofuckinwhatmate?
Cue a rant to the office manager asking why the holy hell this wasn't scheduled for out of hours when we could take down the comms room power. So far I have yet to have a satisfactory explanation.
