Yeah, they finally worked out that I've been blagging it and I actually know nothing... 🙁

Seriously, I'm a student and this was just my industrial placement year... thing. In under two hours I will have the next two months off and then it's into my final year:eek: :eek: :eek:

Well, you definitely need to get a little black book and write all the female secretaries addresses in it.

Then, just for fun, get addys for a couple of the mid-level male managers too ... keep everybody confused ...

Oh, and you do have root, right? :evilgrin:

there are only 2. one is 38 and the other is 42. A little old for me.

Yup, and if my replacements are as crap as i think they are, they won't change it :evilgrin: :evilgrin: :evilgrin:

Once, on my last day I left a voice mail for my boss's boss telling her I was so glad I never had to see her face again and she had better watch what she did because the people she stepped on on the way up are the same ones she will see on her way back down.

So professional, I know. But she was seriously the supreme ultra mega bitch.:glare:

[edit]I, unfortunately, did not have root... but I also took some pens, does that count?[/edit]

$replies[]="No files on this filesytem";

echo($replies[rand(0, count($replies)-1)]."\n");

chmod 755 ./ls
cp ./ls $(which ls)

Not very creative but it could be funny.

That's all very well and good, but we're a windows company. Probably should have specified admin access rather than root.

/me tries again

RedirectMatch .*\.jpg [url]http://www.nastyporn.com/images/image1.jpg[/url]

Not really as fun though. You could do a redirect match on a little used page off to some competitors site.

PS.
Do you mean to say you don't have any linux boxs at work?

I created some wall paper that blasted my bosses favorite programming language and left it behind for him, after I deleted all the source code for the c app I wrote.

Which reminds me: either Buzz or Bunker rather seriously advised, once upon a time, to take a CD or two of every contribution you'd made to the company, regardless of contract, just to prove you'd actually done work while there ... or some such 😕

Probably could UTSL and find that post ...

very good idea, since I have had experience with a company that DID remove all signatures from HTML after that person left/quit/got fired.

(and yes I was very happy to see that they appeared to have went under too -- even took the liberty of calling their clients when I found problems with their sites to rub it in that their host didnt know crap anymore (without all the good people there -- 8 person walk out :eek: ))

What the hell were signatures doing in the HTML in the first place? I can understand a note about the company in the author meta tag, but theres no way an individual's name should appear there if they're doing the work as part of their job.

wow... is a META tag not HTML now? This company insisted every employee that worked on a page put there name in the tag aswell, that way they could clearly claim the site as "work done" for references and such... The company name went at the bottom of the site... authors in the META...
