I don't want to decieve you, but most professional development companies have 
very poor code documentation, worst than most big open source projects. I 
know that's not what they say to you at school, but trust me, that's true.

This said, I understand you, and that's the reason why each time I've the 
opportunity (and time) to clean something, I do it.
