Internship Company employee: Hey, we need 600 images uploaded to a wordpress site, you'll have to do that for me.
Me: Alrightyy, can you give me some FTP or SSH access or something?
Employee: Nope, not allowed to.
Me: Uhm, I could write a shell script and run it?
Employee: The server is windows....
Me: Mother of god, I'll have to do it manually then?
Employee: You could ask John (my technical guider, not his real name) if you can borrow some fellow interns!
Me: *walks to John* Hey man, can I borrow some interns?
John: What for?
Me: Manually uploading 600 images to posts :).
Interns: *looking at me with a deadly view*
John: Sure!

    "I refuse, I quit", that's what I said about two months ago when the boss asked me to generate a technical debt file for one project. It had to be done with "all rules", and that means every word not English (class name, variables, etc) is treated as an error, and when they count 40k, visual studio crashes if you try to suppress them in a batch, and I'm neither a monkey nor a machine to suppress them one by one, with other random crashes in between.

    That's so nice of you that you rant on behalf of your interns.

    @Yeah69 I'm an intern as well, at the same 'level' as them
