I ' ve been with the company a long time , and have seen that happen before . New , up and coming exec is going to storm the beaches ! Grab this company by the horns and make tons of money as he climbs to the top . He demands access to do what he needs to do . He has no idea how , but that ' s never stopped him before ! He gets access . Destroys several million rows of data , creating an outage that affects our billing application for weeksmonths screwing up our customers bills . Dude gets fired . Boss comes to me So . the database . what can we do about that ? and I get my Christmas vacation canceled . That really happened . Fuck no . Not happening again . <| sep |> I could be wrong , but I ' m pretty sure it was a joke .
