Yeah, right. The cleaning crew at the building where I work doesn't go looking through the papers on my desk, throwing some of them in the trash because they think they belong there even though I didn't actually want to throw them out, and sometimes getting offended by the content of some of them and threatening to get me fired over it.
It's a favorite trope to claim they're just "janitors", but WP admins often act more like Judge Dredd.
