Reminds me of the issue from 2 years ago when all the banks got locked out with a Windows update on a Friday night. Most importantly, it wasn't my fault.

Even more important is that it's not your job to fix it, that would just be suhc a mess.

I'm happy quietly fixing my mistakes. And I'm happy publicly fixing other people's. The worst scenario is publicly fixing my mistakes.
