    didnt get me fired, but at my first job i had to access the mainframe server room, which was crazy secured (3 access doors) .. anyway, U had to do database dumps on this beast directly thru the Novell server hanging off it..

    anyway, as i managed to accidentally wipe the boot partition on this server which had been up and running for like 6 years..

    needless to say, they didnt have a copy of the license handy and it took about 4 days to get it reissued (this was 1996, so back when everything took forever)

    it basically crippled about 9 peoples working abilities until it was fixed, not to mention fucked up the monthly reports and blah blah

    who cares.. it was fucking terrible job and i quit shortly after..
