    Fake, there’s no way the sysadmin wouldn’t throw the HR rep who signed the policy under the bus (without some CYA documentation prior).

    Even if this is a joke, this is a great example of something that happens all the time: people avoiding responsibility by blaming some chunk of software. The electronic equivalent of “No, sir! I didn’t kill that person. The butter knife did it!”

    The place I work at does something like this, and there was actually quite a bit of trouble when a second person with the same abbreviation joined. The responsible guy seriously suggested fireing the new guy because the policies didn’t account for duplications.
