Well, I assure you I'm not making it up. If you can't believe that people will misconfigure complicated systems that almost no single person can completely understand or that working in the storage industry exposes you to bizarre and interesting failures of both hardware and software (and firmware!) then I'm not sure what I can say to have you take a story at face value.

I'm not being melodramatic. You can take a story or leave it. I'm not here to convince you one way or another.

And frankly I don't particularly appreciate being called a liar, btw. Nice use of quoting also. Good day.
