Worst Working Conditions You Had To Write Code In?

Posted by samzenpus on from the 150-of-us-in-a-shoebox-in-the-middle-of-the-road dept.

sausaw writes "I recently had to write code in a hot dusty room for 20 days with temperatures near 107F (~41C); having nothing to sit on; a 64 Kbps inconsistent internet connection; warm water for drinking and a lot of distractions and interruptions. I am sure many people have been in similar situations and would like to know your experiences."

    Try having to sit across from a guy who loves Sarah Palin and can't stop talking about how the government is lacking without her as VP, the best politician ever. I wanted to use his head to stress test the impact rating of windshields in the parking lot. Sure would've relived my stress.

    Oh no, we're entering infinite recursion!
