Ha! This is my co-workers in my previous job.

It's a bit sad when you get paid just slightly more than them but your work is significantly bigger because you always end up cleaning up their mess. I used to mentor them, trying to make them understand the benefits of each different technology in the stack and the disadvantages. It didn't take long for them to "unite" and riot against me for criticizing all their work and "make them look bad" in front of the managers. Ultimately, I secluded myself in my own projects and forgot about the almost daily discussions.

I hope they have matured more and learned that using the trendy tech for the job is not always good.
