It's probably messy because the systems are legitimately complex. Leave off until management knows more about the scope and once they approve your work, go back to it. You'll n need so much time for testing, etc, it's not worth sneaking in.
Maybe write a bunch of unit tests now instead to help when you refractor again.
This is so me 😂
The irony with refactoring is that it is easiest where it's least required.
Dear code,
Please get refactored yourself
Thanks
I'm a bit cornered. A week into an ambitious refactoring effort that was supposed to take just a couple of days to finish, the end doesn't seem anywhere near. The system went from a messy albeit perfectly functional state to a much better structured non functional bag of bugs. If I leave the branch all the efforts are lost. If I soldier forward I'll be unproductive for good knows how many days to come.
How did I ever fuck myself so hard!
