Infinite loop IRL?

I thought you guys might like this.
This happened at my work today. I'm a software engineer for an online software and hosting company.
There once was a Server Admin Level I, an IT Director, a DBA/systems administrator, and a Server Admin Level II.
Disk IO on two servers goes beyond reasonable means and the server slows to a crawl.
Server Admin Level I notices the issue, and alerts the IT Director
IT Directory notifies the DBA/systems administrator
DBA/systems administrator gives the command for Server Admin Level II to fix the issue.
Server Admin Level II passes the buck back to the same Server Admin Level I who reported the problem.
Server Admin Level I then went to the IT Director...
For you C# programmers out there...
class ServerAdminL1 {
public void ContactSomeoneElse() {
ITDirector newContact = new ITDirector();
newContact.ContactSomeoneElse();
}
}
class ITDirector {
public void ContactSomeoneElse() {
DBA newContact = new DBA();
newContact.ContactSomeoneElse();
}
}class ServerAdminL2 {
public void ContactSomeoneElse() {
originalServerAdminL1.ContactSomeoneElse();
}ServerAdminL1 originalServerAdminL1 = new ServerAdminL1();
originalServerAdminL1.ContactSomeoneElse();

}
}The story itself wasn't all that great, but the code made up for it :)
