People sometimes vandalize or destroy bits of the stuff they work with. Things like writing on the calendar to cross off past months or circle paydays -- that's minor. That's perfectly understandable. But stuffing trash in your computer tower, etching lewd commentary on the plastic desk cover, and half-destroying vital equipment -- why?

Today I wound up filling out a booth-out form with "Booth usable. Network jack dangling & dismembered (mangled almost beyond recognition)." (Yes, I got photos. No, they're probably not very good. Yes, I'll try and get better ones. Yes, I'll try and get a photo of an intact jack for comparison.)

Still. Why? It does give me the excuse to write up hilarious equipment problem forms, but I'd far rather have a boring day than have to come up with witty phrases to describe the way one phone goon has shredded any number of equipment bits...
