Better yet. Only guy who knew the code retires/quits. The next guy who inherits the code finds out nothing was documented and it was all in the previous guy's head. Next guy has to spend weeks analyzing the code, asking coworkers who shake their heads and buying beers after work to get the previous guy to help him.
