Worked, after hours from home, on a Windows Server and fixed and issue with the Database on there. After doing so i thought I'd go to bed and shut down the machine... only I hadn't yet left the RDP connection and shut the server down by Accident. Had to drive to work and start the server up again.

Accidentally shutting down a Windows server is impressive. They have that "why are you shutting down?" dialogue to prevent this scenario.

Oh I was totally on autopilot and selected "Maintenance (Software)" because that is what I did... and I discovered the brainfart two seconds too late.
