This pilot fish works at a bank, and he's not surprised to see his boss, the IT manager, show up one day for the monthly management meeting. But as soon as the meeting is over, the chief lending officer asks fish's boss for help because his laptop won't power up.

"My boss tries everything he can think of to get it to power up, but it won't," says fish. "He checks all the cables to make sure they're plugged in, and they are.

"He's then told by the CLO that he has to get this thing working ASAP because the CLO needs a file off it printed so he can take it to a meeting with a customer in 30 minutes."
