Most people suck at software engineering.

Plus, there's always the temptation to do it the shitty way and "fix it later" (which never happens).

You pay your technical debt. One way or another.

It's way worse than any gangster.

I wish I was so lucky to have comments.

in real life, I'm fighting with - I'm not joking - a few dozen "quick patches". code does not reflect in any point functional requirements, and dude is adamant he's in the right and supersarcastic in any occasion.

I've been working at my current company for almost a year.

I had no idea it could be this bad.

I actually had to fight/plead with someone to "please read the code". Guy did get fired though.
