I don’t know if the humour of this situation will come across in print. I was working in Hartlepool with a group today called the Warrior Women.

This ICT centre had the feeling of the Marie Celeste and when we tried to log on we were getting nowhere with usernames and passwords. We were almost on the point of giving up when this woman walked in and said she had sorted out the server. I said “excuse me, I don’t want to sound rude but you don’t look like the kind of person who resolves server issues” She said “well, I’m really a kitchen helper but I know how to sort out the server” I asked her to show me and we went into another deserted room which was quite sureal as it had a two way mirror into the computer room. She then demonstrated to me her server technique (see below) It worked but I’m sure you’re not supposed to throw the mains switch off and back on again!
