For me, it's tech debt. I spend most of my time replacing the code someone else developed years ago. Am I making it better and more scalable? I hope so. But I'm sure the previous developers felt the same way.

Btw - I've been developing since 1999 as well, so there are plenty of people cleaning up the debt I left.
