Well, it happened again

What is it with this building and power?

It appears that we've flipped a circuit breaker, since about half the outlet in the office work, and half don't. Unfortunately, the breaker panel is behind a locked door, and building management is out to a long, long lunch. At least today, I could eat lunch while waiting, since the kitchen had power.

At this point (2 hours after the first call was made to the property management people), we've got a string of extension cords across the rooms & corridors, so that those of us without power can leech off those who have it. That'll work fine, until we blow another circuit.

I think that the building infrastructure is just crumbling...

Oh, for heaven's sake. Try not to set fire to the building with all those extension cords.

well, someone from the building finally showed up to flip the circuit breaker about an hour ago. So, we've been slowly moving stuff off the extension cords and back into the wall sockets as we get time.

I'm almost afraid to go home, to see what new mechanical failure will face me there...
