One day, the CS guy was out doing PM on the drive, and I walked into the machine room to find him smoking while doing the PM with the drive wide open to the world. He was immediately escorted out of the machine room and out of the building, and his boss was called and told that he could send someone else out to finish the PM and pick up the guy's tools (which we neglected to let him take).
