Paying with his Check Card, he notices the bartender struggling to use the register. After 10 minutes the bartender finally rings up the charge and returns the receipt to the SysAdmin to sign. Finishing his drink, the SysAdmin notices a place for "Tip" on his receipt; writes in "PEBKAC, RTFM" and as he stands up from his barstool suggests to the bartender that he is experiencing a typical "ID 10 T" error, before going about his day.

On their way back to the office, the car stalled and wouldn't start. The mechanical engineer suggests an engine problem and that he might be able to fix it. The electrical engineer says its probably a wiring problem he can fix. The petroleum engineer thinks there might be water in the fuel, and that he should check the filter. The sysadmin speaks up authoritatively, sure of the solution, and says "everyone get out of the car and get back in".
