Subject: [Cis-all] flooding on 6th floor
The god known as the 6th floor coffee machine is angry. Apparently
not enough undergrads were sacrificed this year, so on Saturday
night, it showed its wrath by attempting to drown all of us heretics
by flooding the kitchen and hallway. Fortunately, I discovered this
at around 9pm. My attempts to soothe the god by unplugging him were
unsuccessful, so I summoned the priests of the temple (aka,
facilities ops), who appeased the angry god and his consort the water
machine by turning off the water supply from the sacred fountain (the
sink). The priests sent their slaves to clear the flood and summoned
the wind gods (aka, giant floor fans) to dry the marsh that the
hallway carpet had become.
The priests suggest not returning the god and his consort to their
thrones or restoring their power until their anger abates, whether
through blood sacrifice or the summoning of the repairman-priests.
Your humble servant with wet shoes,
S____y
