Depends. Who would you rather have the ace in the hand when it comes to future issues about fixing things if it doesn't work?

You're a doctor, right? You've at least gotta throw your IT dept a bone and let them feel they can do something special from time to time. Let him fix it.

The only reason to flush a toilet is because you've used it, right? It isn't possible that she blew her nose and then dropped the wad of toilet paper in the bowl.

maybe she blew a dude and then spit the spunk in the toilet
 
Maybe she derives the same sort of compulsive pleasure from flushing toilets that others derive from popping bubble wrap.

I could do without the swearing, smashing of things, and overall elevation of stress in the house that will ensue. My anxiety and stress levels have hit uncharted territory lately and I've ended up curled up in a ball, shaking when he's pitching a fit about something or other.

So if I'm relatively technocapable and watch a few YouTube vids on doing it, what's my fail rate?
I have never done any computery things other than turn them on and find porn, forums, or games. I was able to swap mine with no issues.

If you are an intelligent, patient, methodical person, your fail rate should be nil. Afterall, I was able to do it.
