Me for example.
Yesterday evening I assembled my parents new cardio cycle with my mother. In generall I'm quite good at assembleing stuff.
But I'm a lot better at assembleing furniture (you can wake me in the middle of the night and I'll put together an IKEA Billy cupboard for you half awake ^_^) and all kinds of cardboard boxes - but electronics and other technology is harder. In generall there wasn't much trouble with the cycle itself or the guide - the cheap material was bad (my dad bought the cycle at Aldi). The screwdrivers they had with the screws in the package is made of soft metall and peculiar shaped (who payed a designer for this thing???). So while trying to find a better fitting one in our own toolsbox I really whished I had a sonic screwdriver.
But we managed to put it together and now the electronics need to be adjusted (the "computer"; there is also a DVD ROM with a training guide). And I bet this will be my job tonight, since my parents are not good with computers.
Is cardio cycle the right term? Those bikes that drive but don't go anywhere? Uh, that sounds almost Zen. An arrow aimed but not shot - a bike driven but not going anywhere ... ^_^
