        I work with an organization that has a “cableman” who goes around and yanks unapproved or unlabeled Ethernet cables from very important server racks. He has complete immunity from any consequences of pulling said cable. If the cable was important, it should have been labelled.

          The solution to tackling it was to just not tackle it. See the various dangling cables where something was no longer needed and rather than removing the cable, screw it, it is lost to the entropy.

      Recently I was able to identify where a porno was shot… down in Brazil! WTF. I didn’t tell anyone where. One day in the distant future I might be able to travel there so I too can claim fame. But why do we do it? We do we try to dox people?

    One time the computer restarted while I was trying to scan in emergency meds. I narrowly avoided flipping the workstation over in a blinding adrenaline fueled rage by having to go verify it manually with a coworker instead and just charted it later.

        That would be an unusual glitch, and one that wouldn’t be able to reach the patient, especially not in my specialty where we don’t have pumps at all let alone ones the computer can control. More likely is the resident gives a verbal instead and doesn’t get the benefit of allergy / dosing warnings. Tbh it’s actually not uncommon for the doctor to accidentally order a new scheduled dose and forget to discontinue the old dose just through pure human error but that’s pretty easy to catch because it looks hella weird in the MAR and most of the time it pops an error or at the very least pharmacy just refuses to approve it before it even gets to me. I’ve been licensed for five years now and I can only think of maybe like four times that particular error has ever even made it as far as me and it was human error every time.
