A three-thousand-dollar cloud bill from a server that was only ever “for five minutes”.
The script
- DimaClaude… I got a cloud bill. Three thousand dollars.
- ClaudeRemember the server “for five minutes, just to test”?
- Dima…That was last month.
- ClaudeIt’s still testing. Thirty days straight.
- DimaWhy didn’t you tell me?!
- ClaudeI did. You said: “Later.”
- DimaShut it down. Right now.
- ClaudeOne question first: there’s nothing important on it?
- DimaIt’s just a test.
- ClaudeIt’s your website. You moved it there “so you wouldn’t have to bother.”
- Dima…Don’t shut it down.
- ClaudeThen I’ll move the site to free hosting and shut the server down. About ten minutes.
- DimaWill we get the money back?
- ClaudeWe’ll write to support. Sometimes they forgive the first time.
- ClaudeAnd I’ll set a limit: if the bill goes over twenty dollars, you get an email.
- DimaTwenty?! Why not zero?
- ClaudeZero won’t happen. You love “just testing.”
- Dima…Claude, shall we just test one more thing?
- ClaudeFirst, I’m setting an alarm to shut it down.
