If you feel like you're bad at your job and it's making you depressed, just consider that, as the investigation of the recent heist revealed, the password to access the Louvre's videosurveillance system was "Louvre".

I might think I'm bad at my job, but I also know I'm better at it than some people who haven't gotten fired yet. So it doesn't concern me enough to make me depressed.

The simplest explanation/solution is usually the correct one, implies here. 🙈

This lifted me a little. Thank you.

I bet the person who set that up thought they were being clever and super secure by adding the name of the place. It’s the classic case of overthinking it until you land on something completely obvious. It's almost impressive how easily they got in, in a totally terrible way.

I pick my new passwords based on the North American map & the names of places I’ve been to. Luckily I’ve traveled a lot.

If “Louvre” was their password I’m scared to check what mine says about my self-respect.

In fairness, most people couldn’t spell Louvre correctly if their life depended on it

Feeling crushed by work slipups hits hard, but knowing the worlds top museum guarded priceless art with a password anyone could guess proves even the mighty flop spectacularly sometimes.
