That reminded me of a System/34 job I got (many, many moons ago). The president went to an IBM sales thing; came back with his copy of the order; threw it on the treasurer's desk and told him to implement it. Took them two years (and two other programmers) to find me.


On the downside, eight years later the gig ended when they decided to move to a Unix-type system. My boss (the treasurer) and I were both sent packing.
