Dilbert is not funny, it's too real

A month ago:

Koodiorjatyttö: This feature is ready, when should I put it in production?
ImpatientBoss: You can do it right now.
Koodiorjatyttö: I mean, should we make it visible before you get the customers to pay for it?
ImpatientBoss: Sure! I don't have to give them the access to it. We can always make it invisible again is they don't pay.

And guess what happened now:

ImpatientBoss: Errr... Guess what happened?
Koodiorjatyttö: What happened? (Aside) You are gonna make me undo some feature you made me do a few weeks ago?
ImpatientBoss: Just like we talked about, the customers don't want to pay for the feature because it's already there. I tried to remove their access but they say that we have to give them access to everything that is in the database. Can you disable the feature?
Koodiorjatyttö: Sure.
ImpatientBoss: We are gonna tell them it was a free demo!
Koodiorjatyttö: I should probably submit this to Dilbert.
