I've never held a position of real responsibility and all my work can be retroactively fixed. So i've never really had one of these moments. But there must be some goons who are surgeons/prop traders/policemen or whatever. I'm wondering what your biggest 'oh poo poo,' heart-sinking, spine chilling moments of total clarity over what an idiot you've just been are.

I trust you do realize that without your own backstory of your own "oh poo poo, heart-sinking, spine chilling moment of total clarity over what an idiot you've just been" this is just a post essentially saying "HAI GUYZ, WHAT YOU THINK ABOUT BUTTPLUGS?", right?

I work as a psychiatric nurse in an acute setting. Couple months ago we had an older schizophrenic come in, bought in by police because he trashed his department of housing flat and the neighbors got worried about the animal sounds coming through the walls. I've known him for a while, he's a genuinely nice guy when he's well but at this point he was floridly psychotic. First thing he did on arrival to the ward was break a window and take a swing at a female nurse. Another male nurse and I grabbed him, restrianed him and dragged him into seclusion and got an order for 10mg midazolam (a heavy sedative) and 10mg haloperidol (a strong anti-psychotic) drawn up as an intramuscular injection and we give it to him whilst he's still restrained. Now the guys in his early 60's so I kept a fairly close eye on him. His blood pressure dropped to 90/40 and and pulse rate was down to 50. At this point I'm making GBS threads myself as I believe I've over sedated and potentially killed this guy. He eventually stabilized but it was probably the most frightening 2 hours of my life

Now, if we could only recreate this with Opus111 as the protagonist and this time you'll use 20 mg's of Midazolam and 20 mg's of Haloperidol, then I think things would sort themselves out eventually.

I was trying to install server 2003 on an IBM system x machine and accidentally formatted/installed to the external HD backup device. Eventually got Windows installed and logged in to start restoring... but the external was named "local drive" instead, and the only folder inside was the windows folder... an entire database full of hundreds of thousands of records had been in there before I butt hosed it up...

It's like a white hot feeling that starts behind your eyeballs and spreads to your stomach. I just wanted to throw up and go get a job as a garbage man instead.

Actually no. It was the second time I learned that lesson that stung the most.

I once was very stupid and decided to update a record in an SQL database manually

I forgot to include a WHERE clause.

That was a fun evening of restoring from backups!

(For non-nerds: if you tell SQL to change a value in a record but don't specify which record(s) to update, it overwrites everything)

Well *I* only read the New Yorker and eat Fancy Feast.
Working on a phone switch at a coast guard station, trying to add an additional phone line. I wasn't aware of why the current hardware was configured the way it was and cannibalized some parts to add the phone line, which took down the caller ID function of all the phone lines, including the emergency line used for search and rescue calls.

When I tried to reverse my hardware changes on the circuit board, the backplane snapped off on one of the 10 year old cards, bringing all their phone lines down. Even though I eventually fixed it around midnight and still had a 3 hour drive home, that was the moment I felt that lovely iron grip feeling around my stomach and cold sweat. I hate doing IT poo poo... Good thing it's only my loving job.

Set a patient on fire once, made national news.

http://www.emsworld.com/news/10341428/fire-didnt-contribute-to-connecticut-womans-death
Back story to this was it was raining that night, and the patient was on a metal pole stretcher and still wet causing the defib paddles to arc setting the oxygen bag valve mask that was on the patients face ablaze.
