Another developer, who I had out-developed, intentionally sabotaged my code in the wee hours to make me lose face. Fortunately, we had source control, and he was a fool, so it backfired.

Even so, the long-term prospect of not being able to turn my back on my coworkers was not one I welcomed, so I got into independent consulting. Could probably make more working for the man, but I think the freedom of it is priceless.
