What's the definition of insanity?
Albert Einstein once said "The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results". According to the Free Dictionary by Farlex definition 3 states a. Extreme foolishness; folly. b. Something that is extremely foolish.
Let me give you a "hypothetical" example and you can judge for yourself:
Okay let's just say person A runs a space heater and at the same time person B is running their space heater, then suddenly all the power in that corner of the office goes out. Purely coincidence? Maybe. Now a few days later let's say person B turns their space heater on while person A is running theirs, then within the next 15 minutes all the power in that corner of the office goes out again. Could that be considered a pattern? What if it happened 5 more times over the next 3 weeks? What about when the chief engineer and office manager walk around asking if anyone has a space heater...because it is against the rules to have them...because they trip the breakers!!!
So I ask you...who is the insane person?
Insert Your Answer Here (........................)
Now unless you entered my name in the blank you (and Albert Einstein) are wrong. I am the one who is insane or at least I am going insane in having to deal with this.
Thank you, British Academy

Hilarious! Since I'm on one of the higher floors in our building, we're always roasting during the winter... Nobody has blown any breakers running their fans yet though.
