Brian C Baer's "The Robot Whisperer" (flash fiction, robot debugging, free)

While the story itself is ordinary, it's noticeable for nostalgia value - feels like some of the Asimov's robot debugging stories.

Story summary.

A technician (Asimov would have called him robot psychologist) talks a robot out of depression.
