Today, after spending a good hour troubleshooting with IT, I discovered that Bratson deleted 1.2million records from our database yesterday through sheer stupidity. Turns out he re-started a process which was archiving/deleting records – for no reason that he could explain (and which he had utterly failed to mention when quizzed). I very calmly had to eviscerate him. I don’t hold out much hope that this will be the last time he does something idiotic. Thank the universe for back-ups!
Nonetheless, I had a quite marvellous day: I covered off a piece of work which had been looming, had an excellent kick-off meeting for a long-term project and I feel very positive about where I am headed at SML1.

You should make a list of things he’s not allowed to touch without certification. Coffee maker? That requires a Boiling Liquids Safety Induction.
I really feel that it would be better/safer for everyone if he was to just sit quietly at his desk all day doing nothing at all, because it has become pretty clear that he is not going anywhere any time soon.
