I'm freelance (aka ronin) and so the job security is actually a bit spotty. :)
Ouch that is the worst. Called in to a great big mess. I hope by the time you get called in they realize they need to invest in some clean up time.
"They" have usually been very grateful to have the disaster mopped up.
job security in software development isn't a problem especially since the pandemic started, if you're working on crappy code its because you're choosing to at this point
You know nothing about the choices I make and your condescending manner is rather insulting.
I've been a paid programmer for over 40 years. When some code has seriously gone off the rails I can help.
