    This definitely could be made better by converting everything to and from XML during the process.
    Even doing it all with SOAP would hardly make it worse.
    Dude, it'd make it sting the eyes!

    If I had a cookie for every time I've been presented with some bizzare connectivity requirement that resulted in some Rube Goldberg nonsense to circumvent...well I'd have a lot of cookies.

    However, I want to know what Joe did. Did he? -Present the cluster to management only to be shot down for suggesting expensive changes -Ignore the WTF like a good employee and do what he was assigned to do -Quit on the spot -Keep the knowledge in a back pocket for revenge purposes

    Come on, if you're going to present such a juicy WTF, you have to give it a humorous ending beyond a simple turd joke. At least put the flush joke in as part of Joe's fictional bug fix solution.

    Code reviews are great, you get to share stuff you learn with other developers who might not know what you know. And if you're not learning new stuff all of the time, you must be working in a pretty boring development environment.

    Oh FFS a story by snoofle, I thought the little twat was too busy walking out of interviews because they don't ask him the right questions.
