We inherited a service with a cron job named temp_fix. No docs, no owner, older than half the stack. We left it alone for a month and then finally traced it: it was quietly patching a broken reconciliation join. Nothing about it was temp.

Now every legacy handover we do starts with listing what we are scared to delete. You probably have a list like that sitting somewhere too.

Was this useful?
