I delivered a small C# program long time ago.
Unit tests, integrations tests, functional tests, all passing (users even happy).

Colleague of mine approached me.

C: "I finally fixed the program"
M: "Which program?"
C: "Product X"
M: "What was wrong with it?"
C: "Nothing, but now it runs on Python"
M: "..."
C: "Yeah, we lost a few features, but it's Python!"
M: "Aren't you busy with other things?"
C: "That can wait"
M: "..."
M: "..."

    I personally love Python. But this is useless (except it couldn't run on Linux (with Mono)).

    I pulled the same shit on my CTO. But I think the reasons were completely valid. The said app was written by someone not working there anymore and the app needed new features. Since I was the only one having some basic knowledge of the codebase I rewrited the whole app to make it more accessible to current developers. It took me about 50hrs. I get yelled at a lot but after two months of adding features apon features to it I think it was completely worth it.
