lol...

And, yes, I concur—PEBCAK constitutes about 95% of my IT issues. Every time I figure there’s NO WAY someone could be dumber than that last guy, an even dumber one shows up to prove me wrong.

That's one of Murphy's Laws.

We have a related rule in engineering. If you think you've finally made something foolproof, the universe will upgrade to a better class of idiots.

End users I can deal with. At least, the lower level end users. They may complain when I tighten security, but, in the end, they have no choice.

The problem end users are invariably CEO’s, CFO’s, etc.

They tend to think security is for the little people.
