LOL... that's pretty good. Unfortunately, in my line of work, it's usually us user's that end up finding too many problems with the engineering. We had a huge modification that we performed to an aircraft here a couple months ago that upgraded their Flight Management System and Navigation systems to the same systems the space shuttle used. Unfortunately, there were so many flaws in the drawings it set the entire project back about 2 weeks! It was one of those situations like "OH NO! YOU DID EXACTLY WHAT WE TOLD YOU TO DO!"

Sweet, I literately got ripped a new @ hole this morning from a customer having an issue. And guess what the issue was? He (not something we did) had a group policy pushing down to all of his servers causing this service account to get over written. Guess who's the blame? MEEEEE lol Sigh. Pointed it out and fixed the issue. Do I get some praise? Nope, I guess IT will always be the bad guys. my job! HAHA!
