    My week started with a visit to the dentist. Probably not the worst way to start a week, but still pretty crappy.

    What is this talk of release? I do not release software. My software escapes leaving a bloody trail of designers and quality assurance people in its wake.

    Not the worst way? What could possibly be worse?

      Yay!! Happy monday morning to everyone... I've just started my week editing code written by an intern back in 2006... Is there someone out there who's starting his/her week worst than me?

        Alimentary my dear Watson. You could be visiting your proctologist.

                  Well, I started at a doctor's appointment (not the dentist).. Took more time to drive to the doctor's place than the actual appointment..

                  The signature is in building process.. Please wait...

                    If that can be of a cheer up, I guess you would not want to change jobs with @glennPattonWork lately. What language are you coding in ?

                    ~RaGE();

                          Well you know everything about fixing old legacy code, don't you. :) At least I know that no one else has touched the code I need to fix. I'm even happy enough to know that it's MS that broke it, not me. That said, I'm still having a load of forehead slapping moments here. :sigh:

                              As you get older, you get more legacy.

                                        I know what you mean, there's someone from our branch in Italy who's been bad mouthing some code I wrote back in '06. All I can say is, if they can do better, they can write their own bad code...

                                        It was broke, so I fixed it.

                                          Well, I'm not saying the intern's code from 2006 is necessarily worst than mine: I'm just saying that, supposedly, in 2014 I have more instruments than what he/she had back in 2006 and, also, it might be the case that stuff he/she used at the time is not working anymore, got lost, et cetera... Also, my IDE is going to complain a lot about this 2006 project, before letting me actually edit it. Software simply gets old (and ugly), it's not the coders' faults.
