Red as a bell-end...At my old job as a plant site desk operator, I got a call one day from a poor chap who was paralysed from the neck down, and scooted about everywhere on his electro-wheelchair...which had broken down in an isolated corridor. So I grabbed one of the engineers and we made our way to his location. Once we got there, the engineer set about fixing his chair, only to say to the bloke once he was about to switch it back on "fingers crossed"...
