OH. MY. GOD. The AUDACITY of recruiters! 😱 They show you this PRISTINE yellow building during the interview like "Oh yes, our codebase is TOTALLY organized and well-maintained!" Then you show up on day one and BAM! 💥 Half the walls are LITERALLY CRUMBLING, windows hanging by a thread, and some poor soul is outside with heavy machinery trying to keep the whole disaster from collapsing! "Needs a little refactoring" is corporate-speak for "this horrifying spaghetti code hasn't been touched since 2003 and the original developer left to become a goat farmer in the Alps." Honey, that's not a project—that's an archaeological excavation waiting for carbon dating! 💀
