I heard in many large companies, they would create short artificial downtime for internal services, so that user-facing system never rely on a single internal system for resources and data. This prevents large downtime in user facing system when any internal service is down for a large amount of time.
I think a great use of interns is to make these downtime more organic.

Isn't that what interns are for? Unscheduled QA in production?

Yeah it's called chaos engineering and it can be fun.
Nah, I'm sure that is a task for security auditors.
If the intern can do it, they should do it. So you can learn, that he shouldn't be able to do it.
Intern: “Why do we do it this way?”
“Yeah, why do we do it this way?”
*Doing it differently*
Oooh… that’s why we were doing it this way.
Hell yeah, intern! DO IT!
Crowdstrike: push that update and let's go home
“We tested in simulation and it was fine”
Isn't the real joke that that interns aren't really getting hired anymore?
Should be aiming way lower. Hasn't OOP ever played Angry Birds?
OOP might not have, but FP certainly has

Well, these days…
I am the intern
I’m a senior developer late in my career, and interns are a source of endless fun. I love it.
Time to test those back ups.
Not too long ago my company got hacked and I realized they didn't have a 3-2-1 backup
WAAAAH HEEHEEHAH
*entire internet breaks*
Good intern
