The other day, when my 13-year-old tried to run our garbage disposer, it quit working. Just died for no apparent reason. Although I consider myself fairly handy, I have no experience with garbage disposers, whatsoever. So I pulled the ol' "We'll let Daddy deal with it when he gets home" line. Accordingly, when our hero arrived home that evening, we heaved our garbage disposer woes onto his capable shoulders.
DH: "Have you checked the electrical panel?"
Me: "No, I hadn't even though of that." So I ran out to the panel while he waited in the kitchen. No breakers were tripped, but I reset the appropriate one anyway, just in case. Back in the kitchen, no result.
DH: "There should be a reset button on the disposer itself somewhere, feel around and see if you can find one"
So I got down on my hands and knees under the sink and felt around for a reset button. Sure enough, there is a button at the bottom of the unit, and when I pushed on it, it clicked in. We tried the disposer again...it worked!
My darling daughter responded with a great cheer, "YAY, Daddy!"
Yes, he truly is amazing. He never touched the disposer or anything and STILL he managed to fix it! Are you not impressed? Join with me now...
For he's a jolly good fellow....
