I once had to drive 3 hours to basically reseat a power cable of a tv. Also once I had to troubleshoot the private printer of the boss of the company at one of his apartments because his mistress couldn’t print anymore. It was set to letter size, the fix took 10 seconds.
I spent an hour trying to figure out why my internet connectivity wasn’t working. When I finally went to look at the router box itself I saw it had no lights. My cat had knocked a picture off of the wall and it fell right down behind some heavy furniture, knocking the plug for the power strip out of the wall.
Ha I did something similar with speakers back in the day. Learned the lesson the hard way to make sure stuff is actually plugged in as step 1 for my self troubleshooting. Spent at least an hour, maybe more, messing around with my PC, settings, checking plugs to the tower … For some reason didn’t think to check that the power for the bass (which the speakers controller passed through) was actually plugged in until way too late and with far too much frustration!

One time a contractor my landlord hired unplugged my Internet in the middle of a meeting.
