Yes, and worse. On one occasion I was feeding in trays and trays of
cards that represented free gifts to the clients. Although I was
always very methodical and careful when doing this, somehow, I
don't know how, I fed in a tray (or more?) of cards twice. As a
result, about 10,000 customers got their rather expensive gifts in
duplicate! Needless to say, proper statistical controls were
implemented by my department afterwards. It turned out to be quite
didactic.

That's what the sequencing field was for! If you used it, you could
run it thru the sorted and it would put them all back in order!
All the Best
