The waters are even more dangerous than we imagined. Have a look at some of the crazed whales our brave submitters and commenters have encountered in the wild.

First comes an Anonymous tale of woe:

Our company makes apps for businesses. We have 1 MAIN client whose CEO can make or break our company, and his wish is our command. He sent a priority email on a Friday night saying the app was slow and needed to be fixed.

The client CEO is so important that he works directly with our CEO, who decided to PM this huge issue.

All weekend, we were trying out tons of different things to optimize this "slow" app that "wasn't loading or refreshing." We deployed the app Monday night after a weekend of unpaid overtime (darn salary). On Tuesday, the account manager made a bug card to officially represent the work we did, and they posted a previously-unseen video of the slowness.

There is a refresh icon that spins when clicked. The video was of the refresh icon, and it was spinning for an extra second after the data loaded (and jumping 2 pixels from padding styling).

That is what was high priority.

I mean, we all hate the system, but sometimes the system is actually there to protect us.

Next, we have Daniel's ongoing peril:

We do digital flyers/circulars/ads. Eight years ago, that meant we got PDFs from retailers and turned them into digital content. One huge retailer (hundreds of stores) wanted a dynamically-created flyer that would have up-to-date pricing twice a day. We didn't have time to build out a full digital solution (which would have made sense), so instead we spent six months banging together a solution with spit and duct tape which baked out hundreds of PDFs every morning and afternoon. This one retailer was responsible for about 40% of our processing power.

We're finally getting somewhat closer to phasing this out, but "it worked" for this long ...

Finally, let's be grateful Brian escaped with his life!

Worked for a company that was building a component of a high-profile weapons platform for one of the major military suppliers. We had taken over the project from another company that was under-performing, so we were already behind schedule from the minute the contract was signed. Of course this company saw fit to treat us more as a subsidiary than a subcontractor. Including, for a time, sending one of their own managers to sit in our lab and observe (read: babysit) us. On Saturdays. Then they demanded we start working shifts to make more use of the lab equipment, and I got the bad draw: 3 AM - noon. Never mind that I had just gotten married (they actually called to tell me this while I was on vacation the week after my wedding) and would like to actually spend some time with my wife ...

That experience soured me on the whole military-industrial complex for a long time. To this day I still get headhunters pinging me to work for that megacorp; I just chuckle and delete their messages.
