Joined a new team at work hoping to learn something new. Was told by the team lead that they will be starting development on a new project that I was interested in.

Guess what it was all a fucking lie. I'm assigned a task to create documentation for some legacy java shitcode without any fucking comments.

Fine I get it, they say it's required going down the road of the new project as it will work alongside the old application. But the code is so fucking bad. For starters

-The db host and credentials are hard-coded in a million places
-it stores user credentials in plain text
-its creating files in the fucking filesystem to store things instead of storing it in the db
-each functions ranges from 100 to 8000 lines of code

Who even codes like this 🤯

And I can't fix these issues. All I need to do is document every function and class and package. Fine. Fuck this shit
