Working in San Diego, there are a lot of conservative (R)'s.
At the company I was working at, we have a cafeteria, where everyone went to eat lunch.
It had maybe half a dozen big screen TV's blaring.
The person in charge of those TV's was a retired Navy Officer.
Well he loved FOX, so that was the station he had blaring through out the lunch hour.
The STB used for displaying, was in the Cafeteria as well, in a cabinet, behind a locked
glass door, where the remote was located.
So I buy myself a universal remove and program it for the STB being used.
Then my friends and I would go down to the cafeteria and sit at the table right in front
of the cabinet, about 15 feet from the cabinet.
I'd discretely take out the universal remote and change the channel, with the remote under the table,
to a local channel, CNN or ESPN.
One day we're watching CNN when the Retired Navy Officer came into the lunch room and he noticed
that CNN was on and not FOX. So he walks to the cabinet, pulls the key to the cabinet out and changes
the channel back to FOX. Puts the remote back in the cabinet and locks it and starts to walk out.
When he gets near the door, we change it back to CNN. He stops and looks at the cabinet, very confused
at this point because there's nobody near the cabinet.
So he walks back and changes the change, again to FOX. As he walks out we change the channel back to CNN.
At this point, he's so frustrated, he just walks out, as our table is hysterically laughing.
From that point on, if my friends were going to the lunch room without me, they'd swing by my desk
and ask for the universal remote.
