Years ago, I had a long running intermittent fault with a protocol converter box for hooking up a line printer to an IBM mainframe. It turned out that the cleaning staff were unplugging the box to plug their vaccuum cleaner in and then putting it back in when they were finished. They were not deterred by the large "DO NOT UNPLUG" label since they couldn't really read english.
