Got woken up at 3am during my last week at a job. Had to ssh into work servers, which are in the UK, to issue into a client server in china, which tunnels through what I could only describe a 56kbps modem connection to fix an issue. Round trip was about 5 seconds. Never in my life was I more careful to type things correctly while at the same not awake enough to type correctly.
Only to tell the client that we had fixed their issue two months ago already, but they had been too stupid to install the version we gave them and instead upgraded to the next point release which didn't have the fix. Was fun to wake up my manager for the first time in 8 years just to tell him "look either get QA to certify a release with the fix we already know works or tell them it's their fault and that can wait until the next point release".
