The person who taught me python when doing if statements made us write a script to determine if a parrot was actually dead and should be refunded by the pet store...

Fun fact python is not named after the snake. The original creator was actually just a fan of Monty Python. The language was named after the comedy group

I knew a senior engineer who did this. Granted I don't blame him, elevated accounts (basically admin accounts) had corporate assigned 36 character(letter, number and special) randomly generated passwords which expired every 6 hours. If you used the account on more than 3 computers the password expires.

To get new password you had to log in with normal account, go to special website, log in with your account and a authenticator code from company phone, request new password, write in a reason why you need it, go back to homepage of special website, approve your own request, go to your manager, ask them to approve it also, go back to special website, likely need to relogin including authenticator, finally new password is shown on screen for 30 seconds....

This went on for well over a year. Team lead was a nice guy, got promoted to team lead and decided everyone else was shit.

Last I heard coworker was doing something with the cutting blades on tractors and harvesters so he had a happy ending

Also years later I had a friend message me "hey former lead applied for a management job where I work and I saw he worked at company you did. Was he any good?" I told him all these stories and the former lead didn't even get an interview
