I was Sam Sung the viral Apple employee - the joke changed my life

I'll never forget the moment I went viral. I was working at my other part-time job, and my phone started ringing like crazy. I thought a family member had died. I peeked and saw a text from someone saying I'd gone viral on Reddit, and they sent me a link. It was 2012, and I had never heard of Reddit. I wasn't on social media, apart from LinkedIn, so I thought the link was a scam and ignored it.
