    Years ago when a bank were refurbishing a building they were moving to I spent a few days setting up a server and 30 PCs for an application. While they were rebuilding I had been in either the server room or on the main floor, the other floors where the gents was were still being refurbed. We all used the ladies loo.

    The system goes live without a hitch and a colleague does the go live (I was abroad or away installing something else) then a month or two later they wanted a few more PCs & some extra features added. I turned up unloaded the PCs rushed up to the loo, opened the door and was greeted by a number of ladies in bank uniform - oops! explained, apologised and went up one floor (not an euphemism).
    Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.

      This insight in to our technique might explain a lot as well. Best with sound. (it's not real so not horrible).

        It turned out that the lock was loose, and I did not forget to lock the door as I initially thought.

        Has anyone got a better ice-breaker to a new colleague?
        Will you use that defence in court?

          I misread the title and thought it said, "I scored a lady"

          I was intrigued...

                Walked into the ladies' changing room by mistake at a leisure centre once. Two ladies there were both fully dressed darn it!
