it feels sucky to see all my hours of hard work getting trashed without a second thought.
I’m an electronic security installer. You know how many times I’ve done stuff like install a complete 40+ camera CCTV system at a new store under construction only to be back at the same store a year later ripping it all out when it goes out of business? I know what that feels like.
Worst is when you come around for a regular store equipment refresh and recognize something you installed at that store ten years ago and start feeling real old…
Good luck wherever life takes you now.
It’s also a security risk. Wasn’t there just a recently discovered backdoor in some widely used library that was put there by someone who fooled a burned out/depressed maintainer?
