Helping coworkers Memes

Someone asks you to look at their code. You lean over, hands hovering awkwardly above their keyboard in that universal "I'm debugging your mess but not touching anything yet" pose. Five minutes pass. Ten. Twenty. The problem is so cursed that even standing doesn't help anymore. That's when you know you've entered the danger zone—when gravity itself can't solve this bug and you need to actually sit down and commit to fixing their disaster. The chair pull is the point of no return. You're in it now. Might as well update your calendar because the next three hours are gone.

The classic developer time warp! You spend your entire day helping teammates debug their issues, answering questions, and reviewing their code. "Just a quick look," they said. Four hours later, you've fixed everyone's problems except your own. Then suddenly you look up and... wait, it's dark outside?! Where did the day go? That bug ticket you were supposed to fix is still sitting there, untouched since morning standup. And now you have two options: go home defeated or stay late and become the office cryptid that maintenance keeps finding coffee mugs from.
