Admin permission for everybody!

In episode 134 of TWIQ, Louise Woodhams shared her win: she found a defect before it hit production. This particular issue was related to permissions, and if it had gone out, it would have given everyone admin rights. Straight away, I heard Oprah in my head saying, "You get admin, you get admin! You get admin!!!" While it would be nice if everyone had those types of permissions, some things need to be earned. It gave me a laugh, and I put it in the chat. Sometimes, you just need a good laugh. Hanging with the good people of TWIQ will do that for you. 

Great job finding the issue, Louise! Keep testing. You're doing fabulous!
