Working Is Working

The eternal developer mantra: "If it compiles, ship it!" Sure, your colleagues might be horrified by your spaghetti code that looks like it was written during a caffeine-induced hallucination at 3 AM, but hey—the end user doesn't see your variable named "thisStupidThing" or your 200-line function with 17 nested if statements. The compiler doesn't judge your life choices, and neither should your coworkers. Just remember to document it with "// Don't touch this code, it works by black magic" and suddenly you're not a bad programmer—you're a code wizard!
