    Ok mate, not really sure what you are on about, and I can see from you avatar you may be in need of some mental health intervention, maybe electric shock treatment or a lobotomy? Although sounds like you may have already have had them.

          I have been responding to insults, but from now on I will ignore that and only talk about the topic of the thread, I hope you can do the same.

              Never done it, never seen it done, and never credibly heard of it being done. I have picked up projects where a previous contractor either was asked to leave or left in a hurry, and seen some highly corner-cutting code, but I would put that down to incompetence and bad decisions taken under pressure of time, rather than active sabotage.

                    I was building an app at a pharma, and the key user was a bit of a scally, a cockney hard case. We got on like a house on fire, and had a few good sessions.

                    I put some code on one of the menus, if the user was this guy, if it was a wednesday, if it was between 10 and 11:30
                    randomise one chance in a thousand, change the menu option

                    I met him a few years later, and he mentioned this weird bug that he couldnt replicate and had all the support staff laughing at him. when he saw a slight suppressed smile begin to form, he chased me round the site about three times
