I honestly needed to hear this today, so thank you. I'm at work trying to work out someone else's uncommented code and have just been staring at it mumbling to myself. I'm new to the position so I'm anxious my new coworkers will think I'm just dicking around... This is the validation I needed. Thanks everyone!

From what I learned in my workplace, it seems that for most people the best way to appear competent is to continuously criticize the work of your colleagues
