A few years back, I worked for Lloyds TSB, as an web admin monkey, updating their graduate recruitment site. This was around the time of the foot and mouth crisis, and, whilst bored, I changed the horse logo to a cow, and the name to Lloyds BSE, on the screensaver graphic file i had access to - just a bit of dumb photoshopping. I didnt realise that, since I was updating the site, I had full access to the London network. The next morning, everyones machines, including front line branch machines, was displaying my 'edited' version. I was given an *instant* dismissal. My bank account was cancelled and refunded to me, I was walked out of the building by security at 11am. Although it's not enforced - I signed a form stating that I was legally not to enter a branch of Lloyds TSB again. As I left the building, not a single person smiled, they all looked at me like I'd just killed a puppy.
