    Data entry programming? What is that. Like the job title.

    I've come across a few stories like this. Looks like the unlucky ones got caught. Personally, I don't see a problem with it. If you're doing the job the company hired you to do and you can completely automate it then kudos to you. If the company/your boss isn't smart enough to know what you do then it's their own fault.
