Silly Programming screw ups (funny)

The funniest thing to me this year:

While in pits, I was often told to "fix my code" so that the robot would work. My response to this statement was "fix your wiring." 95% of the time our electrical guy would come out with a loose wire or a bad relay, and everything would work beautifully the second he fixed it (of course until the next "code" problem, that is) .

And then some of us get blamed for both because I'm the lead on both, 1 out of one for program and 1 out of 2 for electrical. Even if I'm not there its my fault(that is if I am never there cause I always am)

Hint for beginners, make sure the cable is off the robot when going to test hybrid after downloading new changes. Check once, twice, and trice. And never tighten the pins down. You'll thank me later
