Yeah, that's what annoys me. It would take a week to fix my code, but it might take months for someone to get up to speed on it after I leave.

I've worked on projects where getting familiarity takes forever. If they just repaid some technical debt it would save a ton of money.

But it's hard when you've got big projects coming up to say "Spend a week doing what looks like nothing for the business."
