It was pretty common in my workplace to find some piece of equipment that just randomly stopped working. A few times, the thing would start working normally again as soon as the chief came to see what the problem was. We started joking that the chief has some AoE buff
It’s the tech aura. The machines know not to misbehave in his presence because they know what happens to machines that misbehave. It’s especially effective on printers, because (as everyone knows) printers are sentient machines imbued with the spirit of a lesser demon, and therefore do experience proper fear.
