Andrew Warner(@AndrewWarner):See that? I rented an office in Mexico, but that smoke detector beeps. “Could you change the battery to stop it?” Office manager: “No” “Why not?” Office manager: “Too high” I go outside. I find a guy with a giant ladder. “Can I pay you to use your ladder to change that battery?” Him: “100 pesos.” Deal! I go back. I'm excited. I tell the office manager. She say “no.” “Why not?” Some government agency would be upset. The beeping means it's working. I'm at a Starbucks now. Their office is unrented and empty. Not sure what to do next.
