It might be funny ... but not for sure
I had a co-worker who was stuck on site commissioning for too long .. by himself ..
On a setup screen buried deep in the ControlView HMI, there was a button that was black text on a black background ... so you had to hit it by randomly clicking around. You could not see it.
That displayed a warning to 'Never press that button again'
So of course, the operator clicked around until he did it again.
Next step - the warning changed to 'You were warned!'
5 second delay
Full screen message 'DEATH RAY ENABLED'. Blinking White text/Black text on the entire screen Red background. Until you hit ESC to exit the screen.
The operator hid in the corner of the room for the rest of his shift. Out of sight of the ControlView screen. He was very scared. For REAL. (though not the most experienced or resourceful operator that worked there)
He reported to his supervisor in the morning (it was a night shift) and asked that their OSHA committee be brought in to investigate.
The supervisor knew who had done it .. had grown up with my co-worker .. and called him to tell him that he had 'caught' one. BUT .. any other supervisor in the plant may have reacted much differently. I doubt that anyone on the OSHA committee had heard of the hitch-hikers guide to the galaxy. Or seen the FAR SIDE cartoon (or any of the many other examples) that reference enabling the 'DEATH RAY'
My co-worker never had anything similar in any future HMI he did. Though there was a lot of humor in the PLCs, comments, etc.
My own experiences are far less entertaining, sadly.
