M was having problems with a crashed computer in her company's phone room. They use really old systems that run a bare bones linux install, but even though they're dirt cheap to replace, she decided to take a look inside.
Being pretty savvy a sniffing out computer problems, M was torn as to what the problem could be, but not because she couldn't see the problem.... quite the opposite...
Could it be the green pencil below?
Or the empty bag of salty snacks...
Ultimately, I think it was the what APPEARS to be a chocolate bar jammed into the floppy drive.

Oh my word... Chocolate you say...
hmmm I wonder how they ever did that..
Well, if it's NOT chocolate, I don't want to know how it got there.
OMG I actually worked there and I remember seeing the odd wrapper sticking out of a floppy drive and thinking that it was the stupidest thing I'd ever seen since the girl Shelly who sat behind me in Grade 10 Data Processing class took her assigned 5 1/4" floppy disk out of her purse where she had stuck it after folding it and creasing it -- twice.
She didn't seem to understand why it wouldnt work anymore.
