I would scale a 3 floor building by climbing down balconies before I call maintainence to let me out. Or toss some rope out the window and climb down I guess.

But I think I would even try taking the entire handle off before calling maintenance. Or even straight up texting a family member and waiting a few hours.

My wife, on the other hand, is the "I tried to wiggle it lightly a few times so now I am giving up". Installed a new light last week, and it takes a split second to actually turn on. In the literal 600-800ms it takes to charge up, she flipped the switch 3 or 4 times, and loudly yelled about how the piece of shit we bought doesn't work. I simply went over and flipped the switch up and left it there to actually power up.

People like that 100% exist.
