That's a pretty messed up story, though I'm not sure it'd be a coder's worst nightmare. I'd think that'd be if some major project you were worked on got hacked... while you were enjoying the weekend off and had no access to your work computer. Or just if your project developed a show stopping bug at that point in general, since you'd get the feeling that 'oh god, we've been done by two days' or 'we've been serving malware for two days'. Or maybe if you'd found a breaking bug that needed fixed, yet no answers were available online, no one in the room could help and the site was due to go live that night. All that time worrying, refreshing your Stackoverflow question and trying in vain to find a solution would be torture.
