10. Getting the lamp fixed took a visit from yet another technician, who jiggled the plug, plugged the lamp into another socket, took away the light bulb, came back with the wrong bulb, left to fetch another bulb, came back, changed the bulb, decided that the lamp itself was broken, took away the lamp, and finally returned with a new, working lamp (while we were at lunch).
