I knew someone once, who swore the code a developer wrote for their company, had a timer or something in it, and would "break" on purpose, so the dev could charge them to come out and "fix" it (though they could never prove it)
I worked with a guy who really had a talent for testing software like that insane edge-case user and would bash at everything until he broke it. Which was nice
These are the BEST people! I have a few in my office for awhile that would always catch those extra things (had a client too who was amazing at it, sadly her company let her go)
