Not having an actual disable switch, so you make one, wire it backwards because the diagram confused someone, and fry the OI. Then you're done for a while.

poor programmers/electrical people. they get such a small amount of time to do so much! and this is real sympathy.

This one makes me laugh in retrospect.

The robot was 80 pounds overweight. Someone hands me a grinder with a cutoff wheel and says "starting trimming.....everything!"
