I Thought My Teacher Is Just Being Hard On Me But It's Everywhere

The eternal workplace hierarchy in action! Junior devs naively approach seniors with what they think are simple questions, only to be met with the sacred incantation: "Just Google it." The senior programmer isn't being cruel—they're performing the ancient rite of passage that transforms helpless code babies into self-sufficient engineers. Remember the first time you mustered the courage to ask about that NullPointerException only to be redirected to the holy shrine of Stack Overflow? That's not gatekeeping—that's tough love wrapped in efficiency. The cycle continues, and someday that junior will be the one refusing to explain what a callback function is.

The Handover: When Code Becomes Someone Else's Nightmare

The most elegant knowledge transfer in software development history: Panel 1: "This is my code" = Translation: "Here's my undocumented spaghetti mess with zero comments and variable names like 'temp1' and 'x2'" Panel 2: "It's your problem now" = Translation: "I've been secretly planning my exit for months while deliberately avoiding writing any documentation" Panel 3: "I'm out" = Translation: "Good luck finding me on LinkedIn when everything breaks in production next week" Panel 4: [Empty panel with just the poor developer] = Translation: The exact moment when existential dread sets in and you realize you're now responsible for 50,000 lines of code written by someone who clearly hated both you and future-them.

I Knew These Hardware Cultists Were Out There

Someone scrawled "HAIL SATA" on industrial equipment, and it's clearly a typo from a hardware cultist trying to worship SATA (Serial Advanced Technology Attachment) instead of Satan. This is what happens when you let data transfer protocol enthusiasts near chalk. Somewhere, a database admin is making sacrificial offerings of old IDE cables to the SATA gods for faster read/write speeds.
