This is a question IT Support

Our IT support guy has been in the job since 1979, and never misses an opportunity to pick up a mouse and say "Hello computer" into it, Star Trek-style. Tell us your tales from the IT support cupboard, either from within or without.

I can't tell the difference between CO2 and water.
Once upon a time, water fire extinguishers used to be red, and CO2 extinguishers used to be black. Foam was beige, powder was blue (I think), and there was a green one too, as I recall.

Pretty easy to work with. Something electrical's gone up in flames? Grab the black cylinder. Some paper's burning? Grab the red one.

These days, all fire extinguishers are red, thanks to those useless fucking cunts in Brussels (and thanks to the spineless cunts in Westminster not standing up to the cunts in Brussels) making decisions about things which should be left well alone.

How the fuck am I supposed to tell which red fire extinguisher contains water, which contains CO2, which contains foam, etc.? They're all fucking red.
