        Wait, I thought someone "hit the wrong button?" No? And it's ridiculous that ONE person can send out such a consequential notice. Whatever this person's history/problems are, shoddy protocols and poor management are not his fault.

        We paid $598b for dfense last year, you’d think we could get a missile warning system consisting of more than a guy in a Bermuda shirt.

        Its rough having a job like that! As long as no one got hurt they shouldn't have fired him though. He just caused panic and undue stress. Just more training is all. That is just my opinion.

        No reports of people "checking out" early - maybe we love life more than I thought. Could some sociologist do a study in this?

        Okay, first it was an employee mishap, then it was a system mishap, now it’s likely that it could’ve been real? Get your story together, CBS.

        But now that everyone knows if you make an honest mistake you will be fired, everyone will be afraid to Sound the alarm for a real attack. Big mistake by management
