That's extremely problematic, especially if that cheap looking prop you got as a tool gets stuck[^] and you only have seconds before the warp drive executes its final GOTO (hell).

Good for you!
Once had a customer years ago with some crazy issues with a system of ours, after a couple of days on the phone, beating our heads against the wall, come to find out that the installer had put a polarized connector on backwards. Think something like a large RS232 connector. Says the installer, 'Oh yeah I remember, that was a difficult connection to make, we needed to hit it with a rubber mallet to make make it seat properly...'. 
|
|
|
|
|
|
And what do we learn from that? Don't rely on mechanical means to protect your connector. See to it that nothing shorts out when someone really succeeds in reversing it.

The installer has then been repeatedly hit with a steel mallet to make it reason properly.

Not sure how unless there was no battery in there in the first place. Ever since I was very young I would look at how something was originally placed before removing it to either put in a replacement or just rebuild it for fun.

Sounds like we had similar childhoods my parents quickly learn not to leave tools out and become worried if they didn't hear me for a few minutes. Some item was being 'upgraded'...

... at a coffee shop table in front of what seems to be two young colleagues (both in company outfit and with luggage and laptop bags), one girl and one guy, sitting in front of each other. They are small talking together while the guy is actually only hardly listening, because absorbed by surfing the web on his laptop. It has been more than half an hour now, and the girl has been looking at that guy (and doing nothing else the whole time) like any guy would like a girl to look at him, with what I would call obvious signs of interests. And needless to say, the guy is completely not noticing this.

I would not bet against "plain dumb"

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

There is a difference between not betting against something and saying it is something.
But I forgot the joke icon, so I accept my partial error

I was also joking. It takes a little more to offend me. But I love it when extremely politically correct people start begging for forgiveness.

Then sit and wait, I would even recommend you to have a beer... since it can last a bit until I beg your forgiveness

It would probably have worked better if I had not told you that.

Obviously?
Misery loves company, obviously.
How about 'not interested'?
Or how about 'able to use that gray thing between his ears for more than just keeping the ears apart'?

Probably a golfer. Figuring out a new grip that will fix his slice. Most golfers gave up sex for the game.
If you can keep your head while those about you are losing theirs, perhaps you don't understand the situation.

Or very smart.
Starting something at work is not a very good idea. How are the chances that she is still so freindly when it ends? Have you ever seen what women like to do to get revenge? Not being interested in the first place and telling her may just be a shortcut to the same results.
If you want to keep your job, it may be better to stay clear of all that and play the idiot who does not get it. It's what I would do.
