This is a question Absolute Power

Have you ever been put in a position of power? Did you become a rabid dictator, or did you completely arse it up and end up publicly humiliated? We demand you tell us your stories.

Thanks to The Supreme Crow for the suggestion

I am an IT Technician
In a school.

Odd satisfaction wattching someone play a game through VNC, block the site, refresh the page (so the game comes up blocked) and watch them panic and try and get back on the game. It's a lessen, hello? Work?

It's evil. And I don't do it all the time, just to the ones I don't like (not that as support staff I'm supposed to show favourism).

I used to switch on RAdmin and scan for open, unsecured connections
Wait until I'd found someone polishing the old trouser snake (or looking at porn, at any rate) and then remotely close all his browser windows

You can practically smell the fear when someone knows they're being watched

The technicians at my old college used vnc. One of my mates found a way to disable it through Word of all places. The technicians couldn't work out how it kept being disabled.
