Actual escalation I got:
contractor: I am trying to remove this file that is filling the drive but it won’t let me
me: show me what you are doing.
contractor (screenshot): # rm -f /dev/hdc
another one did rm -rf /var to clear a stuck log file, which at least did solve the problem he was having.

I made mine more Windows-like because it’s more familiar to me, but you can easily make it look like Gnome or Mac or something else entirely using menu-driven settings.
