our place has an idiotic system where if you mistakenly type in the wrong password 3 times, the account gets locked and you have to call/visit IT to have it opened and depending on how busy they are, it can take a while.

if somebody is feeling trollish they can type whatever username they've come across and lock that person's account.
That's a normal policy. It prevents brute force password attacks.

Most places have it set so after the 3 failed attempts, it'll only lock the account out for 5-10 mins then auto unlock. Failed attempts after that would requite IT to manually unlock the account.
