Found a weird billing system bug that took three months to actually fix
It was a tiny thing where the software would double-charge a client if they paid on the 31st of certain months. Has anyone else had a simple error that just refused to go away?

Man, that sounds so frustrating. Date bugs are the absolute worst to track down. Glad they finally got it sorted though.

Ugh, date logic is the worst. Did they ever figure out why it only happened on the 31st of specific months?

Actually, I kind of love date logic puzzles. It's like a little mystery. Figuring out it's the 31st points you right to the problem, like months with only 30 days. Or maybe a bad leap year check. Once you spot the pattern, the fix is usually simple. Those are the satisfying bugs.
