The QA guys are absolutely insane. Matt bought a webcam under the behest of his wife to remotely check up on their dog at home. So while he has it here, he, Tom, and Jeff rigged it up as our own surveillance camera. There's a big storage closet next to the QA lab that's usually open and full of crap. They ran a long ethernet cable into the space from behind and hid the camera within some decoy crumbled packaging. The camera has a commanding view of the hallway leading up to the lab - so now we can all observe the live feed to get a 20 second warning in case our manager is coming up to check on us.
The best part? They stuffed our remote controlled fart machine next to the camera. XD
