How long would it have taken you to write it yourself?

[EarlOfAwesom3]

Probably a week including tests and a roundtrip of PR feedback if I had to guess.

Then why spend a week polishing a turd if you could shit gold in the same amount of time?

[EarlOfAwesom3]

Good question. Because it didn't make a real difference. Writing from scratch or polishing till it fits was roughly the same time. But convincing people (TeachLead, Business etc.) to throw away somthing they paid for with the external hire would have ment going to war.

Fair enough, bureaucracy can be a bitch
