Can you share a specific example of a game developers horror story?

Sure. The case of Daniel Pearl. He was a Wall Street Journal reporter who was kidnapped and brutally murdered in Pakistan in 2002 while investigating the links between Al - Qaeda and Pakistan's ISI. His death sent shockwaves through the journalism community and highlighted the extreme risks that journalists can face in certain parts of the world.

Sure. There was a case where a fan bought tickets for a highly anticipated concert on Stubhub. When they arrived at the venue, the tickets were rejected as they were counterfeit. The fan lost a lot of money and missed out on the concert.

Sure. There was a store that used Shopify for their clothing business. They had a big sale planned for a holiday season. Right before the sale, Shopify's server crashed. They couldn't access their store, and all the promotional efforts they had made went to waste. Customers were frustrated as they couldn't make purchases, and the store lost a significant amount of potential revenue.

A particular horror story involves a team leader who was extremely moody. One day, they would be very positive and encouraging, and the next day, they would be critical and angry for no apparent reason. The team never knew what to expect from the leader, which made it hard to work effectively. For instance, a team member might present an idea that was well - received one day but harshly criticized the next day just because of the leader's mood.

One example could be a guy who was using Winstrol without proper medical supervision. He began to experience pain in his abdomen. It turned out he had developed liver problems. His liver enzymes were way out of normal range. He also noticed that his libido was decreasing rapidly. He was really scared because he didn't expect these things to happen when he started using Winstrol. It took him a long time and a lot of medical treatment to get his health somewhat back on track.

One example is about a man who married a Russian bride. After the marriage, he found out that she had a serious gambling problem. She had run up huge debts in Russia that she expected him to pay. She also started to be verbally and physically abusive towards him. The man was in shock as he had no idea about this side of her before the marriage. It was a very difficult and horrifying situation for him to deal with.

Sorry, I don't have a specific example on hand. It could be something like a pet owner giving their cat felimazole for a thyroid problem and the cat suddenly developing a very serious skin condition that was not there before, and the vet couldn't figure out if it was related to felimazole or something else at first.

Sure. There was a case where a person woke up one day and couldn't access their phone. They soon realized that their SIM card had been swapped. The attacker then used the phone number to reset the passwords of the victim's online shopping accounts. They made a bunch of expensive purchases and had them shipped to different addresses. The victim had a hard time proving that it wasn't them and had to deal with financial losses and a lot of stress trying to regain control of their accounts.

Sure. There was a family who hired a nanny. They were new to having domestic help and didn't really understand the nanny tax rules. They just paid the nanny a flat rate without withholding any taxes. A few years later, they decided to sell their house. During the financial review for the sale, it was discovered that they had not been paying nanny tax. They had to pay thousands of dollars in back taxes and penalties, which put a real damper on their plans to use the money from the house sale for other things.

Yes. I heard about a hospice where they mixed up the medications of two patients. One patient received the wrong dose of a powerful painkiller, which made the patient very ill. The other patient didn't get the necessary medicine at all. This mistake could have been deadly if not caught in time. It shows a serious lack of organization and attention to detail in the hospice care.
