Ah, this military GPS system looks shoddy but expensive. Shall we try to break it?

Re: wasting taxpayers' cash

Happened that a coworker of mine had borrowed an older logic analyzer (Tek 1240 IIRC) to use at home (this was allowed at the discretion of his manager), and handed in his notice. He was asked if he had any company property at home, said yes, but he had misplaced it, and how much should he reimburse the company (with a nod and a wink to his manager) for it?

An amount was proposed, which was duly deducted from his last pay stub, and everyone was happy.
