After 7 years of freelancing, Scott Iseri, got an office job. Instead of buckling down in the corporate world, he created a web series “Scotty Got an Office Job” featuring his office subversion.

 

Check out the earlier episodes on blip.tv and later episodes on Vimeo, or everything on iTunes. Yes it is real and no his co-workers are not in on it.

UPDATE 1: Whoops, it turns out that Scotty’s boss saw our blog post and fired him.

UPDATE 2: Liz Shannon Miller of NewTeeVee reports that Scotty was offered his job back, but instead decided to return to freelance work.

I hope I’m not the only nerd who read that title and immediately thought of Subversion as an SCM.

This is almost as good as Merlin’s “That Phone Guy” videocast

Yeah I was waiting for him to check in some code. I think I watched 3 videos before I realized he wasn’t going to do it. No svn command line, no TortoiseSVN, nothing!
