How dare I polish and remove kludges from previous releases. ๐Ÿ˜†

Also, none of those kludges would have even been necessary if the project scope was properly defined from the start and the project manager didn't let the users keep trickling in new requirements without also extending the deadline.

So yeah, how dare I go back and implement something the way it should have been done the first time?

Yeah, I get that completely. Which is why I rarely, if ever, overhaul the whole interface.

Pretty much every change is a refinement rather than a complete redesign. In this case, the complaint was because I moved a button that was just kind of tacked-on last minute in a previous release into the action menu where it should have gone to start with. lol

I can't believe you moved a button. HOW COULD YOU??? I trusted you, Patrick.
