If you've read about that time I destroyed Active Directory with a PowerShell script which saved me two minutes of work and took down all of prod (even locking people out of the parking deck and disabling internet access!) then you might wonder how I kept my job.
There are a few things I did to survive the experience.
Maybe once a month I would get a request to make a new user in a department. The format was always "make user A just like user B with all of the same groups she has".
I was just learning PowerShell and hated having to do this by hand and also not have any trail of my work. So I wrote a nice script that made UserB a member of all of UserA's groups, with some nice logging and tested it over and over in -What If mode.
Eventually I get a new ticket request and tell my coworker, "hey, check This out!" And run the script and it outputs
PS>Now copying all groups from user A
