This exact thing happened to me last friday at work. EVERYTHING electronic I used malfunctioned while I was using it. Even the urinal broke, I flushed once and it just kept on flushing, I had to get the super to call a plumber.

The computer froze, the printer froze, the copy machine chewed all the paper, my headphones broke (the ipod didnt, though).

And I haven't thought about electric eels in years, theyre freakin awesome

Anyway, that was the most infuriating and frustrating day at work I have ever had, I can't imagine dealing with it all the time.
