I heard about a team of engineers who were testing a new server. They were so focused on getting it up and running that they didn't notice they had misconfigured the cooling system. The server got so hot that it started making strange beeping noises. When they finally realized what was going on, they found that the heat had caused some of the components to expand and the server case was bulging a little. It was a funny and costly mistake for them to learn from.
One story is about a person who thought his computer was infected with a virus because all his icons were changing colors randomly. It turned out he had accidentally activated an accessibility feature that changes the color scheme. It was really funny how panicked he was.
A funny story was when a person brought their computer to the help desk. They said it was making a beeping noise. After some inspection, we found out that they had a little toy car stuck under the keyboard that was pressing one of the keys continuously, causing the beeping. It was really unexpected and made us all laugh.
A vet tech once had a goat as a patient. The goat was very stubborn and refused to get on the scale. So, the tech tried to lure it with some hay. Instead of walking onto the scale, the goat ate the hay right next to it and then pooped on the floor. It was a total mess but also really funny.
A guy called saying his computer screen was blank. The tech support agent asked him to check the power cord. He said it was plugged in. After a while, it was discovered that he had plugged the computer power cord into the printer. It was a really simple mistake but super funny.
A friend told me about her husband. He snores in different pitches, like he's singing in his sleep. Sometimes it's a low rumble and then suddenly it goes high - pitched, as if he's hitting a high note in a very strange opera.
A mechanic had a customer who brought in a car with a really strange noise. The mechanic spent days trying to figure it out. He checked all the normal parts like the engine, the transmission, and the brakes. In the end, it turned out that a small pebble was stuck in the wheel well and was making the noise every time the wheel rotated. It was such a simple solution after all the complex investigations, and it was quite hilarious.
A story goes that a group of friends were sharing cigars. One of them was bragging about his expensive cigar. But then he accidentally sat on it and flattened it. His friends burst into laughter at his dismayed face.
I heard a story where a father was trying to teach his son how to ride a bike. He ran behind the bike holding on, but then tripped over his own feet and they both ended up in a heap on the grass. They were both laughing so hard.
I heard a story where a CNA was pushing a patient in a wheelchair to the garden. Along the way, a squirrel ran in front of them and the patient started making squirrel noises to try and communicate with it. The CNA was trying so hard not to laugh. Another story was about a CNA who tried to sing a lullaby to a patient to help them sleep but ended up forgetting the words and making up the silliest lyrics.
There was a mailman in a small town. One day, he was delivering a large package and tripped on a small stone. The package went flying and landed in a bush. As he was trying to retrieve it, his hat got caught on a branch. He looked so silly trying to free himself while still holding the package. The people on the street couldn't stop laughing.
