Oh, you sweet summer PM. "Just a small feature" they said. "Shouldn't take long" they said. Then you crack open the codebase and discover it's been untouched since 2009—back when people still used Internet Explorer unironically and thought jQuery was revolutionary. The code is so ancient it probably has comments referencing MySpace integration. You're not adding a feature; you're performing digital archaeology on a legacy system held together by duct tape, prayers, and someone named "Dave" who left the company 8 years ago. The only documentation? A README that says "TODO: Add documentation." Good luck refactoring that spaghetti without breaking the entire production environment.

Seventeen days in and this developer has already achieved enlightenment: deleting dead code with zero hesitation. Most engineers spend months tiptoeing around unused functions like they're ancient artifacts that might curse the entire codebase if disturbed. Not this legend. They're out here Marie Kondo-ing the repo on day seventeen, yeeting functions straight to main like they own the place. The energy here is immaculate. No pull request anxiety, no "but what if we need it later?" Just pure, unfiltered confidence in code deletion. Either they're incredibly brave or their onboarding process was chef's kiss . Meanwhile, senior devs are probably sweating bullets wondering if that function was actually load-bearing for some obscure edge case from 2019. Pro tip: Dead code is like that gym membership you never use. It costs nothing to keep around, but deep down you know it's just taking up space and making you feel guilty.
