New job: Asked my manager if i can add documentation for the code/project.
Manager: it's completely useless to use hours on documentation. If you don't understand any thing just ask around. It saves time. Just use descriptive variables and method names.
Me: :|

    @xroad although the part about 'ask around' should backfire quite nicely once the original devs leave.. or work on other things for about 2 weeks

    You could ask if you could write / refactor some tests? In my opinion almost as good, if done right 😊

    3 of the mail devs already left. Yesterday i spent 2 hours trying to figure out where to put my service class and where to test it because everyone was busy so ASK AROUND part didn't work.
