    Sometimes a fresh pair of eyes on a code base can reveal some opportunities for big improvements in maintainability 😜

      Also new people are still motivated to change stuff. They are not yet worn down by bureaucracy.

      Sometimes it takes a new dev coming in for management to give the greenlight for a major overhaul. It’s shitty, but it’s true.

      Ahahhahhahha. Ha…ha. Ahem.

      Sorry. The idea that any of the opportunities for improvement at my last “job A” code base might need “revealed” struck me as really funny.
