I know some people who enjoy testing other people's code as a challenge: "lets see what happens when I enter a negative number of days/make an employee their own boss/paste word.exe into that text field..."

The first job I had after college, I remember playing around with my company's online commerce software. I found out I could enter a negative number of items to purchase and my total cost would be negative. Or, I could buy 1.537 dresses.

Amazingly, no one else knew this. (That probably should have been a big red flag for me.)
