You mean like when we were sitting on the floor of the hotel hallway Friday night eating pizza, and we started giving the driver a hard time because the robot was moving like it was under the control of a drunk driver about half the time, and his response was "it would help if when I turned the joystick to the left, the robot turned to the left instead of the right..." (We were using a 3-axis joystick, and turning the stick was supposed to turn the robot). We all looked at the programmer, whose only response was "oops" and then he disapeared to his room to fix the code.
