@aliss In case some poor junior software engineer feels like they need to replicate this feat at their job, just know that it's perfectly okay to just say you screwed up the calendar invite. In fact, promising it in 30 days and shipping in 10 feels more impressive anyway.

@shelldozer @Samsai in fact, use /dev/urandom to get a different official schedule and delivery date to deliver even when already finished. making it impossible for stakeholders to develop expectations

@aliss You can be smart enough to jury-rig an android tablet into a production server in 30 minutes, and also not be smart enough to know which way round June and July go.The human brain is a remarkable piece of equipment.

@aliss I really feel like if your story's premise is "we couldn't cancel the demo, therefore we pulled an all-nighter then unethically defrauded our own employer" you really need to give a REASON you couldn't simply reschedule the demo. Were they working for Vlad the Impaler or something?A little self-awareness of "oh, hey, fraud is unethical and often illegal!" would have shown a small amount of personal growth too.

@aliss every corporation's got its fun "duck tape and bailing wire" infrastructure, from servers that accidentally got walled into the building, to team-required dev servers running on hardware next to someone's desk with a rolling chair...that combined with 'every five minute temporary solution becomes permanent' and you get this story, every time.

@Samsai @aliss ... and if you don't feel uncomfortable with that yet, just blame Outlook. Everybody in that room had had their own appointments messed up by Outlook on the past.

@alissI believe it.A friend worked at a major bank in the 1990s when The Internet was the thing that everyone had to have. This bank was first to have Internet Banking: a web page with a form; press "Submit" and the transaction would be completed the next business day. But all that happened is that "Submit" would simply print the form, then a teller took the pile of printouts and entered them into the real banking system. I'm not sure when (or if) they replaced it with real online banking.
