I once had a Cloud Ops engineer "accidentally" delete an S3 bucket containing all the logos for our whitelisted page. Claims he was cleaning up and didn't think these were important until after the fact.

We couldn't just turn this back and had to ask each client (about 50 at the time) to send us their brand guides again. Of course, being the PM this was somehow my fault

Either PM here being "project manager" or "product manager", that's one of the reasons why PMs never behave like PMs.

Anyway, the one in fault is always whoever is closest. That's a very consistent failure of the "people manager" role.
