Employees fired for hacking their way to free mooncakes

Post by Pigeon » Fri Sep 16, 2016 4:13 pm

One alleged cake hacker confessed on the question-and-answer site Zhihu (a Chinese equivalent of Quora). He claimed he had been unable to buy a cake through the internal website and created his own "plug-in" to hack for cakes after he discovered others were doing the same. The individual claimed that while he shifted his attention to other tasks, the hack he had created ordered 16 boxes of free cakes. Within two hours, he claimed, he was caught by corporate security and was asked to leave.

"This is the fastest dismissal I have ever experienced," he wrote. "It may also rank high on the list for goofballs."

fastest dismissal? Sounds as though he is well experienced in getting fired.
