Whatever it is, the owner comes running when the local maintenance

        We've attempted to address this problem by having plastic tags
on the power cords that basically say "don't unplug me!".  I call them
"no no tags".  They were about $1.25 per to have them printed; they are
about 7 x 3 inches.  I think our only issue has been an "IT Guy" who
thought unplugging everything in the room would be a good first step to
solving his unrelated network problems.
