It Came From Below
Blog post from PagerDuty
Kelsey Shannahan, a Senior Developer at a healthcare IT company, recounts a harrowing night where she was repeatedly paged by PagerDuty with bizarre alerts, despite not being on call. Initially suspecting a prank by a coworker, the situation took a terrifying turn as she experienced strange noises and realized something was inside her house. Despite filing a support ticket with PagerDuty, the alerts were marked as auto-resolved, and police found evidence of an unknown entity. This unsettling experience led Shannahan to set up a personal alert system that automatically turns on all the lights in her house when notified, and she facetiously considers working for PagerDuty's fictional supernatural department due to their supposed vigilance.
