    The Engineers Dilemma:

    Once you get off your butt to go see what the problem is, the problem will mysteriously solve itself for the time being.

    Source: Worked in local television News Production. We would regularly call on the engineers for the problem to fucking resolve itself by the time they showed up. Always made me feel real stupid.
