    Tomorrow you’re going to be inheriting our in-house framework that uses legacy code from before PHP 7.0 with zero documentation and no dependency management.

      Sounds good to me.

      Had another job where my task was to maintain Perl scripts from the 90s. The company was crap, though, so I only stayed for half a year.

        Maintaining perl scripts from the 90s is my ball park!

        Mind, I did write some of them, and they’re still whirring away making it a pretty easy job. Perl’s lack of breaking features is its strongest strength.
