#TLDR

It was my fault. Again. Sorry about that. :(

Good news is that I have fixed the problem! :)

# The story

I was trying to help a Google Code-in student (Hi Geoffrey!) on a Jenkins
related task he is working on[1]. We have a Jenkins instance at
Cloudbees[2] and since we are out of accounts, he has created his own
instance[3] where he can run test jobs. I was setting up jobs there,
created Sauce Labs service (think Selenium in the cloud), but I was not
sure if Sauce could charge him, so I have decided to cancel the service.

Boooooom!

Looks like I have canceled our Sauce service. I am not sure how that
happened, but it did. Maybe Cloudbees got confused, but more likely I got
confused.

Anyway, I have fixed the problem, it should never ever (ever!) happen
again. To remind myself to never ever (ever!) to cancel services that we
use, I will write a script that will output 100 times "I will never ever
(ever!) cancel services that we use."
