You have to imagine that subject line in an Agent Scully voice. *waits* There, now you have it.

Some sub-moronic nitwit got mouse happy today. Problem was first detected at 2pm. Forensics show that he caused the problem at 8am then tried to cover it up at about 2:10pm. I spent the next 3 hours feeding bits of destroyed data to one of our schedulers for reconstruction. Three hours of time I really should have been working on all the things that were on my to do list. When I left almost all the data had been restored to its appropriate state. Yes, Virginia, you can have a vacation this year.

I suppose we could have just let word slip out who took away all their vacations for the year. He'd have been doing the gallows jig in no time.

I should probably remote in and do the work that I really had to do this afternoon, but my eyeballs are falling out and I might just have another rum and coke.
