I was on the receiving end, except the roles are reversed. Dude retired and left an undocumented spaghetti mess.

But! He worked on a code base by himself for two years, on a subject matter he knew nothing about, in a language he didn't know, and kept asking management for help. I don't blame him a single bit, not the tiniest iota. 200% management fault, once for having him do that and once again for ignoring his cries for help.
