Had a team lead that kept requesting nitpicky changes, going in a FULL CIRCLE about what we should change or not, to the point that changes would take weeks to get merged. Then he had the gall to say that changes were taking too long to be merged and that we couldn’t just leave code lying around in PRs.
> someone nitpicks word you used in a variable declaration
> you change it
> someone more senior says the former made more sense
> this goes on for far longer than it should
> eventually you get a real review from someone in your team that identified something actually needs to change
> you change it and re request reviews
rinse and repeat

Jesus fucking Christ.
There’s a reason that team imploded…
People need to lameduck their code more
Don’t forget get questioned by your manager/scrum lead as to why its taking so long to get out.
Well, I’ve had the PR ready for 3 days and the team asked me to make changes today
you forgot the part where you have to rebase your branch and that causes merge conflicts that were resolved later but somehow still persist.
