This is not an acceptable proposition for a professional.
Defecating is human nature, defecating on a professional for the shallow purpose of gratifying one's ego when faced with impotence is psychotic, especially when one considers the overarching message delivered to said professional.
I refuse to be held liable for the mundane failings of technology, while having my greater works viewed as trivial. This situation is untenable whereby the "Human Nature" excuse would lead a prudent manager to consider all such workers as a potential psychological liability.
However, this is the problem of working the helpdesk for too long.
