Pretty busy day at work today.. in the midst of everything, a co worker asked me to sync their branch on GitHub since they don't know how to.
Told them to commit any changes do that there wouldn't be any conflicts.
Their response: "you should already have my latest from 2 days ago"
.....
Two questions that I should have asked:
1) what have you been doing for two days?
2) why am I doing everything else?

The moment you're declaring variables but keep writing "ASS" because you're typing too fast...

Continuation of my first comment regarding the poor use of dictionaries...
Co-worker's code:
Foreach kvp in dict1{
ForEach kvp2 in dict2{
...
ForEach x in list{
ForEach kvp3 in dict3{
...
}}}
At least 2 of those kvp iterations can be changed to a standard dictionary use
What the hell am I looking at...... :(3 -
Not sure if this counts as a dumb request but:
Customer- There are too many tasks, we need a 'SELECT ALL' button to complete everything easily
Me- sure that's easy to add
(After addition)
Customer- people are completing the tasks too fast! We need to get rid of the select all !

I work at a small company that uses very outdated coding approaches for their solutions.
About a year ago I went through our main application to improve performance and found quite a few areas that I could tackle such as using a dictionary data structure in place of (many) foreach loops that required to pull out a single object.
That specific change yielded a lot of improvement (you can only imagine) and the other developers wanted to learn the ways of dictionaries (because it was so revolutionary and new to them). I showed them many examples so that they could better understand this data structure.
Fast forward to a few months later, saw one of my coworker's code and noticed that they were using a dictionary... And iterating through each kvp similar to a foreach..... Wtf?!
P.S. that person's salary is much higher than mine :(
First time rant. Thanks for listening!10
