The one constant in all those sauces in the meme, other than tomato paste, is sugar. With enough sugar, almost anything is edible if nit downright tasty. Looking at you rhubarb.

Why not both?

I love working as much as I love music and gaming (my hobbies). By this I mean that I love doing the thing that is officially my profession. What I don't like is dealing with the humans in or around what I do for a living. Humans suck. I also hate having to work. Tasks are not nearly as fun when you have the constant threat of homelessness, starvation, and unchecked illness with probable death hanging over your head.

If I am sleepy, I take a nap. Thirty minutes to an hour will do.

If I am low energy or unmotivated I just power through with iced mint mate (coffee makes me sleepy) and spite.

I put the lawyers under Oracle since they are the physical manifestation of the corporation. Think of Oracle as "crack" and Oracle Sales as "crack dealers". Each horrible in their own special way.

The only thing worse than Oracle are Oracle sales people.

Too late. Maná, one of his musical idols, already pulled their collaboration with him and posted this beauty.

I have ~~two~~ three stories.

Company X: Our testbed server room was supported by redundant rooftop AC units, many yards apart. During a storm, a lightning bolt forked (split) One tip.of the bolt hit AC unit one and the other hit AC unit two, killing both cooling units. To make things worse, the server manufacturer did not add a temperature safety shutdown to the units and instead configured them to fan faster the hotter they got. By the time I got there the cable management was warping and melting due to heat.

Company Y: The main datacenter was on tower 2 and the backup datacenter was on tower 1. Most IT staff was present when the planes hit.

EDIT:
Company Z: I started work at a company where they gave me access to a "test" BigIP (unit 3) to use as my own little playground. Prior to my joining the company was run by devs doubling as IT. I deleted the old spaghetti code rules so that I could start from scratch. So, after verifying that no automation was running on my unit (unit 3), I deleted the old rules. Unfortunately the devs/admins forgot to disengage replication on "unit 2" when they gave me "unit 3". So production "unit 2" deleted its rules and told production "unit 1" to do the same. Poof...production down and units offline. I had to drive four hours to the datacenter and code the entire BigIP from scratch and under duress. I quit that job months after starting. Some shops are run so poorly that they end up fostering a toxic environment.

Everything I know about Larian tells me that they did not try very hard to hide it. They had to for liability and contractual obligations, I am sure, but they didn't try very hard to hide it.
