Software Engineer Nerdius geekius computerus Native Range The elusive Software Engineer is a nocturnal creature, rarely found at their desks before 10 or 11 in the morning, but often staying late into the night. They dislike being interrupted while at work, and it is theorized that their penchant for twilight hours is an evolutionary adaptation to reduce breaks in their trance-like state of coding. Not suprisingly, Software Engineers are soli- tary creatures, except for the occasional gather- ings called "code reviews." In these gather- ings, engineers gently pace around a clearing sizing up each other’s work. Although occa- sional battles will erupt, they mostly end with- out injury, and the engineers will retreat to their desks and continue to hibernate. Diet: Pizza, caffeinated beverages, potato chips Conservation Status: Endangered (due to poaching and head hunting) Fun Fact: Software Engineers have been known to kill each other in brutal fights over indentation styles.
