Should I Tell Them I Built A Hacker's Paradise?

Frontend developers trying to access backend data be like: "I was THIS close to paradise!" CORS policy is that annoying bouncer that won't let your API requests into the club even though they're on the list. Nothing quite like spending three hours debugging only to realize you forgot a header in your fetch request. The browser's just sitting there like "Nice try buddy, no cross-origin requests for you today!" And the backend developer who set it up? Probably laughing while sipping coffee somewhere.

Forget customer service tickets—real engineers deploy unauthorized penetration testing. Some Bengaluru dev lost his luggage, got the standard "we'll look into it" corporate response, and decided his SQL injection skills were the appropriate escalation path. Nothing says "I've reached my breaking point" like bypassing authentication protocols to find your missing underwear. Honestly, it's just efficient problem-solving. Airlines spend millions on security, but nothing motivates a breach like a missing toothbrush and that one good shirt you packed.

The ABSOLUTE NIGHTMARE of being a programmer in public! One second you're innocently sliding down the playground, and BOOM—suddenly you're bombarded with tech support requests, million-dollar app ideas, and casual requests to commit federal crimes! 💀 The audacity of people thinking "programmer" means "free IT department, startup incubator, and hacker-for-hire" all rolled into one! Next time someone asks you to "just hack Facebook real quick," remember that prison orange is NOT your color, sweetie!

When free money meets corporate trickery! 💸 This poor soul got BAMBOOZLED by their own IT department who set up a fake phishing test disguised as a $20 voucher email. The classic "too good to be true" trap that we ALL would've fallen for! Now they're stuck in mandatory security training purgatory, probably watching those soul-crushing videos about not clicking suspicious links... while dreaming about what they could've bought with that non-existent $20. The skull emoji says it all - they're DEAD inside! This is the corporate equivalent of your parents saying "just kidding" after promising you ice cream. 😭

The pristine folder structure in the left panel is the stuff of developer fantasies! A beautifully organized project with logical entity relationships and clear naming conventions. Meanwhile, the actual JSON file on the right is a truncated mess with fields like "password" and "birthdate" just hanging out in plain text. Nothing says "technical debt" quite like storing sensitive user data without proper encryption or hashing. The real answer to "What's stopping your codebase from looking like this?" is probably three deadlines ago, five energy drinks, and that one PM who keeps saying "we'll refactor later."

The ultimate IT hostage situation! Dennis Nedry knew exactly what he was doing when he said "I'm the only IT person here. Pay me what I'm worth." It's the tech equivalent of having the nuclear codes. Every company that runs on a single sysadmin is basically Jurassic Park waiting to happen. "Oh, you want documentation? That'll be another $50K. Want me to fix the critical bug at 3am? Hope you've got premium support!" Hammond's reluctant "I'm not happy about it... but OK" is every CEO who just realized their entire operation depends on that weird guy with root access and a questionable fashion sense. If only they'd hired a backup dev before building a park full of murder lizards...
