I’m so sorry to make this post, but I’ve about given up and thought maybe there’d be suggestions here…

I just moved into a new room on campus, and the phone jack is broken. Facilities has gone home for the weekend and my friends who are still here have no idea how to help. I need to make an international call and can’t use my cell phone, so I’d really like to fix the jack tonight…

The problem is just that the jack itself got loose within the box, and is now floating around in a position such that I can’t get the cord to fit in securely. It’s supposed to be secured at the opening, so I can just click the cord in. How can I get it back in the correct position? Everything I do seems to just push it back in further…
