Yes its insane LOL Managers were non-coders themselves, and they looked at developers with suspicion.

This happens in a lot of projects, where developers are almost treated like children or assembly-line workers.

I realized through small hints and queues over time that the goal was to take over the maintenance of the project and make sure that we could fix things if something broke, but not add any new features.

They even had a management term for what we were doing. They called it KIR - Keep It Running! LOL
