Something to mull over in pound-me-in-the-ass federal prison<\/a>: Zulily employee attempts similar scheme from Office Space<\/em> to similar results, but isn\u2019t bailed out by an arsonist<\/span><\/p>\n Ultimately, the best part about this whole story is that it\u2019s just a great excuse for everyone to make Office Space references all over again.\u00a0 Like, people don\u2019t realize just how timeless of a film Office Space really is, and that it was so perfectly created that it could very easily be watched in any decade with minimal age cringe, and still be relatable.<\/span><\/p>\n I just like how there were people out there who actually thought 20 years was sufficient time past the release of the film to think that they could actually get away with trying to enact the same plan as from the movie.\u00a0 But then they somehow manage to make the same critical error in their program, and basically come to the exact same result as in the film, which was roughly around $300,000.<\/span><\/p>\n I mean, if fictional Initech were going to notice $300k, then a real company like Zulily was definitely going to notice $300k.\u00a0 I don\u2019t know if this guy and his team forgot to carry a one over somewhere in their code, or more likely just weren\u2019t particularly bright, but it\u2019s hilarious to think that they thought they would get away with this.<\/span><\/p>\n Worst part about the changing of the times is that companies like Zulily are largely virtual and decentralized now, so even if they did have an arsonist in place to be their contingency plan, all their data was probably all cloud-based anyway, so short of knowing what server farm in what continent it was running off of, the likelihood of them burning down the right one probably wouldn\u2019t have been very high.<\/span><\/p>\n All the same, thanks to this story, Office Space is back in the forefront again, and perhaps the worthless kids of today can watch it and get a glimpse of what waits for them in the future, and bring them back down to earth a peg or two.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Something to mull over in pound-me-in-the-ass federal prison: Zulily employee attempts similar scheme from Office Space to similar results, but isn\u2019t bailed out by an arsonist Ultimately, the best part about this whole story is that it\u2019s just a great excuse for everyone to make Office Space references all over again.\u00a0 Like, people don\u2019t realize … Continue reading Looks like someone else forgot to carry a one<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[79,100,112,45,41,52,25],"class_list":["post-49173","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-brog","tag-cashmoney","tag-comparison","tag-crime","tag-fail","tag-movies","tag-owned","tag-technology"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/49173","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=49173"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/49173\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":49175,"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/49173\/revisions\/49175"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=49173"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=49173"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=49173"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
