A SOFTWARE developer has been busted for outsourcing his own job to a programmer in China, while he watched cat videos at work.

A search of the employee's computer found hundreds of PDF invoices from a third party contractor in Shenyang.

Eventually, it was discovered the employee had outsourced his own job to a Chinese consulting firm, paying about $US50,000 to the firm out of his own salary of several hundred thousand dollars.

The "best part" of the story is that "for the last several years in a row he received excellent remarks" in his performance review, Mr Valentine wrote in his blog.

"His code was clean, well written, and submitted in a timely fashion. Quarter after quarter, his performance review noted him as the best developer in the building."
