Had a team lead that kept requesting nitpicky changes, going in a FULL CIRCLE about what we should change or not, to the point that changes would take weeks to get merged. Then he had the gall to say that changes were taking too long to be merged and that we couldn't just leave code lying around in PRs.

Jesus fucking Christ.

There's a reason that team imploded....

Don't forget get questioned by your manager/scrum lead as to why its taking so long to get out.

Well, I've had the PR ready for 3 days and the team asked me to make changes today
