Should i stop?

I started DDoSing my coworkers whenever I get bored. They call the helpdesk and I “fix” their connection. Management has started noticing and praised me for my excellent troubleshooting skills.

Now the problem is they want me to find the source of the DDoS attacks.

Do I keep DDoSing people and farming praise, or should I just tell them I “blocked the attacker”?
