Once upon a time when you could still run "CMD" on a Windoze box its was no end of fun starting CMD in fullscreen, enter "debug", issuing 'u' or 'd' a cpl of times then pressing Ctrl+Alt+Left Arrow (so the screen got turned on it's side and then ask some new "sysadmin" for help and watch them panic.
EDIT: Looking back at it I must've been really really bored.

Maybe it was payback. In a previous job, we had corporate sysadmins who would shut down ports being used on production servers even though there was documentation (that they required), stating that those ports should not be shut down. It happened several times a year for a while - leaving us to scramble trying to figure out who to contact to undo it. Invariably, we would get back a boilerplate response stating that we needed to fill out the paperwork before they could open them.

Heard of similar used to bypass bureaucracy around new keycards for a server room door. The room had a push switch inside to release the door, so next to the switch they placed a computer to which they could grant accessand set it up so that on login it ran a script that opened the CD tray then logged you out. Poking stick attached to the tray released the door.
