Reminds me of another story my friend told me.

In university, he and his friends contracted with a cook who would make them lunch and dinner. The cook made his money from students in the university especially student sick of canteen food.

Around the end of the month, which was payment time, the food would keep getting hotter each passing day till he and his friends paid up.

The cook never asked for the money directly, something to do with his cultural background.

I thought it was brilliant. The students had to figure out themselves why the food kept getting hotter. Debugging in real life.

What an interesting story... Where did it happen? Those friends contracted a cook and didn't pay him because they thought he will be working for free? Why would they thought that? And the cook is basically poisoning their food - I wonder why they didn't fire him without paying.
