My Users know if they are good to me.. I'm very good to them (within reason).. they also know that they can't 'boss' me around.. my decision is final or I can make compromises with their managers if its in the interest of the company. I dont go out of my way to be nasty.. I feel I'm generally helpful and get the job done. Luckily we dont have too many 'power' hungry backstabbing type of people here.. or I'd prolly react differently.... =)
You can't fight sleep.. if you feel tired, stop and rest!

Im different. On slow days I will "accidently" restart the server during a busy time of day. It keeps them all on their toes. It also creates hostilities that I tend to enjoy.

Get the same thing in my job, amazing how many 'bush-lawyers' and others that 'know' the law out there.
Best part is 'having a lend' of them and they don't even realise they have been 'had'!!
Losers!!

Lias tends to take the jobs regarding server space and takes great delight in doing searches on MP* and obliterating people's private collections of pirated music and videos. He also hunts for software and cracks and removes them too.
I tend to be the one who deals with the email pests and delight in not merely sending those who forward hoaxes and chain letters a letter telling them not to, I call their attention to the periodic general advisaries I've sent in the past (in which I state the company policies on abuse of the email system) and tell them exactly what date and time they opened them and invite them to explain why they felt the warning did not apply to them. I also tell them who they sent the mail to within the company and who forwarded it on and inform them that owing to their actions x-number of outsiders now have the email addresses of y-number employees encapsulated in the emails they've received, which is a breach of the Privacy Policy. I also blame them for increasing the level of spam and other nuisance emails we get by broadcasting work addresses to all and sundry to be harvested by the spam merchants.
They are then informed that the next transgression will result in the immediate suspension of their email account - so far I have never had to. For some reason being told what you did, when you did it despite having read this and that on these days tends to give lesser mortals the "willies" and they start attributing magical abilities to me when "sufficiently advanced technology" is more the case.
I also gave an ISP arseholes because one of our Very Important clients was being bombarded with spurious emails all originating from the same IP address - turned out to be a virus. I found the ISP the number was registered to, sent them full details of the times it was happening and the IP address assigned and requested they get their customer to clean up their computer.
It went on for ages with me sending successively terser emails - I told them the exact virus, furnished them with the relevant headers and samples of the emails, pointed them to Symantec's page on the virus and finally offered to go and clean the damned user's computer myself if the bastard was so bloody thick he couldn't download the fix from Symantec.
They got pretty apologetic after that and assured me it would be dealt with.
Motorbike Camping for the win!
