You have collected data for non-standard fan orientation and operation. Something worth noting.

Well that… sucks!

Actually, it didn't. That's what her problem was.

It is not obvious to me why a fan would not function whilst in the horizontal position. If it were myself I would send a nasty note to the manufacturer. Did the instructions state "Do not lie flat on bench."
|
|
|
|
|
The airflow is impeded when it's laying against a flat surface.
Don't feel too bad. It took me two days to put that together.

The impeded air flow is obvious but was the problem it would not even spin if horizontal?
|
|
|
|
|
It spun, it was just wasn't spinning at max ratings, and I wasn't getting stable RPMs.

"Do not lie flat on bench."
Maybe that could that have been interpreted to mean that while laying on a bench lay on your side or curled up? The manufacturer might have received complains from users having side hip pains and removed that instruction.

It wouldn't have occurred to me either

If you turn it over (still flat), does it turn into a hover craft?
Add collective control, and drive it around your bench.

A long time ago I managed a database group. One of my developers who I will say right now was female although in my mind was not relevant, had been fighting a problem in the code for days. She finally fixed it - something stupid/silly/why didn't I think of that before sort of thing. I thought it was pretty funny and appreciated her effort and struggle, because I have dozens of the same dang t-shirt in my attic.
I said, "yup, welcome to development..." and was almost taken to HR.
Good for you, and yeah that stuff happens. Debugging 101 - even if you wrote the code 10 years ago, don't assume you did it correctly. I just found a bug in a utility I wrote, and I have no idea how we ever shipped product.

Ha!, I think me being genderweird kind of insulates me from being subject to those sorts of HR complaints. If anything people tend to be more worried about me reporting them I think, but I never have. I'm pretty easy going, and anyway I don't believe in it because if it's a hostile work environment, what is HR going to do to change someone's behavior, especially when they can't change their motivations? If I'm not wanted somewhere or an environment is otherwise untenable I'll simply go somewhere I am and it isn't.

Or you are at least an accessory.
I’ve given up trying to be calm. However, I am open to feeling slightly less agitated.

|
|
I kinda feel like it's investigating my own murder, but then you should see the situations I get myself into with code.

I like that. May I use it free of charge and without having to give reference?

Certainly, I was not the first to coin this phrase.

We used that term when I was a student 40+ years ago. And ever since.

My family hails from Poland (mostly), so I suppose I write meatloaf code - an undifferentiated mass full of unidentifiable bits and pieces.
