    Prior to what I do now, which is completely different, I worked electronics on a military ship.

    I don’t know how many officers destroyed equipment trying to do the most asinine things. One officer tried to feedback look a generator to charge said generator. Nearly destroyed the ship. Wasn’t even their work area or under their purview.

    Even on the Enterprise, where all the officers were supposed to be hyper intelligent top tier specialists, I have no difficulty believing they mess things up on the regular. It’s more surprising that it happened so little.
