I once abused an SMTP relay (my own) by emailing Novell a 400+ MB memory dump. Their FTP site kept timing out.
After all that, and them swearing they had to have it, the OS team said “Nope, we’re not going to look at it”. Guess how I feel about Novell after that?
This was in the mid-90’s.
Had one application that would (somethings) give the message: Hey baby, you’re an object.

Funny you should mention this - we must have both worked at the same place.
BLUF - Management required us to mark wrong number calls as “closed, not resolved”. Next day I had 6 calls all day (really slow Sat) with 2 wrong numbers. I didn’t meet my statistics for 90%+ “first call resolution” - because the idiots in management required me to mark two as “not resolved”.
I had to build a spreadsheet and trace in detail all 6 of my calls to show them why.
One of my SOs supervisors actually gave gold stars for good work. These were full grown adults, with children/mortgages/cars and, they thought, professional careers. She had worked there over 30 years when this happened.

Woops, but WTF. How does anyone screw up that bad?
Guess they believed Putlers storyline about Ukraine being full of Nazis.
Math checks out; ship it!
