Conditioning
The office I work in has totally conditioned me to not touch any metal objects without discharging me first. You get charged just from walking on the carpet. For a computer company they have paid astonishingly little attention to that kind of thing. Well anyhow. I am pretty good now with discharging myself before I touch anything. But sometimes I forget. Like I did just a couple of minutes ago when I came back from the bathroom and wanted to pick up my headphones. *Wham* It HURT! I bet you could even see the sparks flying if you looked closely. I also shock my co-workers whenever I touch them. Maybe I should try wearing different shoes to work...
