Clever programmer did nothing for six years
 

A clever programmer who automated his own job and did nothing work related for six years is somewhat disappointed to find himself fired.

The bloke FiletOfFish1066 was moaning on Reddit that he had been fired. The “story” was that for six full years did nothing except play League of Legends, browse Reddit, work out in a gym, and basically do whatever he felt like. He was paid $95,000 per year by the company that did not know what he was doing.

In the first eight months of his software testing quality assurance job, he wrote code, which automated all of the programming tasks.
