When Good Designs Meet Bad Implementation
The classic case of "I followed the specs exactly!" gone terribly wrong. This metal slide is basically a solar-powered child roaster because someone ignored the engineer's warning about direct sunlight. Metal conducts heat exceptionally well—it's why we make frying pans out of it, not playground equipment exposed to the elements! This is why engineers drink. We design something perfectly reasonable with clear instructions, then watch in horror as people implement it in the worst possible way. The slide works flawlessly... at reaching temperatures that could fry an egg. Task failed successfully!
