Last week the office’s switch board keeps on tripping. Lucky it only affects the lighting and not the power sockets. If it was the power sockets, then we won’t be able to work with our PCs for the whole week and till today.

First we thought it was just a normal power trip… you know the kind of power trip at the main switch board which occurs like once or twice a year…

But five or so minutes after we reset the switch board, it go trip again and again and again… then we slowly trace back which one of the lighting fixture is faulty. Luckily we only have 5 light switches affected by the main switch board.

We switch off all the 5 light switches and reset the main switch board. Then we switch on the lights one by one… five minutes after another. Then we found out the faulty lighting fixture is the one inside the server room!!! Damm… 

We called the electrical section to send someone to rectify the problem. They came but can’t do much because they are currently busy with something at the main conference room… furthermore they don’t have the same lighting fixture in stock…

Since it only involved half of the server room’s lights… they are 4 fixtures… I said they can fix it next week (this week). But until today they have not come back to fix it… probably they are too drunk during the Harvest Festival in the weekend… and still in the festive mood.

Now whenever we go inside the server room to do some work, we have to open our eyes very wide… it damm bloody dark to do work… I cant see the keyboard properly… can’t even see the network ports clearly 😮
