I've had a colleague or two like that before. "I'm willing to put in the work to fix the code" is something I would hear, as if it were some kind of virtue. To their credit, people like this move mountains to make shit work, and it usually does. Yet, trying to read and understand their code (much less change it) is a Sisyphean endeavor.
