It failed in the sense that it failed, but it was a success in the sense that it failed. Good test.

UPS test during working hours? Huh. K.

Welcome to the Civil Service, where no one works after 5 PM.

me thinks JSOP is on a military installation... where they test things like this monthly.
Worked on an airbase for 5 years. Time for the "power loss generator kick over" - generator came up, ran for 20 minutes and seized. It appears no one had been maintaining the units (in other words, doing their damn jobs). The base is mainly a maintenance facility now, but back then we had F15s and KC135s on alert for TAC and SAC. The base commander and the facility commander got some a$$ that day.

Sounds like the friggin' Chernobyl story. I'm glad you blokes aren't running a nuclear powerplant.

Arrrrghuably, that is so. Also, if there's a bad harvest the farmers will cutlass and that could result in the price doubloon.

Why would a pirate pay when he can pillage?

That's a macob thought.

There may be a kernel of truth in that...

In a boring job interview:
Useless HR drone: "Where do you see yourself in five years?"
Laconic answer: "Not here."
Silly answer: "Back home on Beta Reticuli. They will probably not want me as a Stormtrooper anymore, but I always can earn a little programming Eludium Q-36 Explosive Space Modulators."
Delusional answer: "Where do I find the office of your boss?"
Everything is better than seriously answering such questions. Any better ideas?

In mirror universes you are not going to be happy unless you grow a beard and are at least lawful evil.
