This is perfect. Especially the fact that 1) it never ends, and 2) you eventually figure out that the best way to get a promotion is not to be faster of more efficient but the exact opposite - delay ending the current task, and keep making it larger, until the next one comes along. Beautiful.
haha hilarious, it does end though when you become "CTO". You can read the code and it takes a LONG time to get there by "typing emails" or you can run `givePromotion()` or update the variables holding that.
You can progress by just putting something heavy on the spacebar.
This sounds like something that needs to be automated with AI ;)
The sounds made me feel like I live 1998 again. Surreal.
The stuff of nightmares.
Just like a normal day in the office
Thanks, I hate this
