    Here's my summary of the story. Please fill in gaps that I might have missed.

    This guy worked tech support at a crappy job in a crappy building with crappy co-workers. One day he deployed some patches (over 56k since details are suddenly important). He came in the next day and a bunch of stuff was broken. He was convinced that he broke stuff so then he thought the job, building, and co-workers were cool now. Eventually it came to light that someone deployed a package that said "Do not deploy" this. It was a technician.

    Much better than the original.

    Oh man, I grinned out loud at this version! Awesome build-up to the punchline, with frighteningly satiric accuracy.

    When the original protagonist has to tell everyone what really happened, the author of this article is TRWTF. I mean, wow, that was BAD.
