    not even a joke, sometimes this is just how it is when you’re testing software.

      Sometimes you build a loading screen into your application that pops up when you hit a special combination of buttons.

        only when you get along with the person testing your stuff (because the other one would probably get me in trouble)

    Remember the Windows 95 copying files animation?

    A colleague and I were sitting waiting for a shit-ton (UK Imperial, not metric) of files for the project we were working on to be copied to a backup folder when our (pretty computer-clueless) boss wandered up behind us and said (with no irony at all - he was called Wolfgang): “Playing a game on company time?”

    But then we all also wrote scripts which printed meaningless computer gibberish to the screen so we could take a bit of time out and relax - and if he ever showed up we’d be allL “It’s compiling” or “It’s recalibrating the main drive” or “It’s defragging the video ROM”.

      I worked from home as a contractor once. Boss was kind of a jerk, though.

        I’m an independent consultant who works from home 99% of the time. My boss keeps sexually harassing me.
