My coworker said to just agree with the customer about the 'haunted printer'

I had a guy in Austin swear his office printer was possessed because it printed a blank page at 3 AM. My coworker told me to play along and 'perform an exorcism' by unplugging it for 30 seconds. The customer called back happy, saying the ghost was gone. Has anyone else had to fix a problem by pretending it's magic?

Ever tried the ol' restart ritual on a router?

My old car's check engine light only went away after I patted the dashboard.

Bet that was just a weird timing thing lol. Cars have sensors and computers, they don't respond to pats. You probably jiggled a loose wire by accident.
