We had a little trouble with the outlets in bathrooms. It seems like all the outlets in our three bathrooms are on the same circuit, and all of them quit working. I asked my husband, who has BS and MS in Electrical Engineering, Ph. D in Aeronautics and now is teaching Mechanical Engineering at an university, to have a look. He tested those outlets to comfirm my report and told me that it might be a short circuit and could cause fire if the problem went worse inside the wall. He recommended that I contact our landlord, which I did. Our landlord, a very nice Chinese lady, came over right away and fixed it on the spot. It was the breaker on the circuit panel (picture). It was off, so she simply turned it back on. I apologized her for having to come down only to turn the breaker on. She might be thinking in her heart that you don't have to be a rocket scientist to figure this out. What she does not know is that my husband is a rocket scientist.
