In this week’s edition of Who, Me?, our beloved readers can indulge in a mischievous tale from “Bernard,” a semi-regular contributor and storyteller hailing from rural Middle England. Bernard shares his escapade from the 1980s when a call from the Internal Audit department alerted him of a damp PC caused by the building’s leaky roof. After assessing the damage, Bernard couldn’t resist an impish idea to play a prank on the feared and humorless auditors. Using a floppy disk with prank shareware programs, he installed a utility that imitated the sound of a washing machine on a spin cycle. The auditors fell for the prank, and Bernard’s story unfolds with how he managed the situation. If you’ve got a tech-related story of your own, share it with Who, Me? and become (anonymously) famous.
