Time cards directly effect billing and payroll and on DoD projects can be a big deal. So if someone’s making changes that could actually fuck up your contract. Transposing the wrong letter in a word where the keys touch is a LOT less severe and it’s easy to show there wasn’t intent.

I've been working dod contracts for my whole career, making corrections is standard and billing has a lag to the government. Now intentional miss charging is the only thing I've seen someone get walked out for immediately. So I do agree it can be serious, I just doubt it was "one simple mistake and fired" especially for a director

Which is why I think OP can breathe a little. If the manager got fired it was more intentional than a typo.
