The importance of reading instructions.

This morning I bought a short six outlet power board, or for those who speak English rather than strine a six gang extension lead. My god but it turned out to be hard to use. It took me half the afternoon of looking at it and scratching my head and even consulting with a couple of other people and we still couldn't see how the hell it was possible to actually plug the damn thing into the wall socket. Happily we solved the problem when we eventually noticed that the manufacturers had kindly printed some instructions that were visible through the back of the sealed plastic packaging it came in.
No shit? All we had to do was take it out of the packaging and then it could be plugged in? So that's what we were all doing wrong all that time. Thanks for that, because we might have never fucking figured it out ourselves.
