The same chap also caused a bomb scare in a missile factory
This week, meet a reader we'll Regomize as "Brian" who told us of the time he worked for an outsourcer that had a contract to provide tech support in a missile factory.
One of the workers in the factory - let's call him "Fred" - had a knack for making trouble.
On one memorable occasion he caused a bomb scare that sent the factory into full lockdown by leaving a box labelled "Explosives" in the pump house for the building's fire suppression system.
There were no explosives in the box. Fred just thought it was a nice and useful box, stored various things in it, and one day forgot he'd left it in the pump house.
