Every place I've ever worked has been completely and utterly devoid of comments and documentation.

One day maybe I'll get lucky and work somewhere where code readability is a goal, but I'm not counting on it. Generally the only thing that matters is that the project gets done on time..and sometimes your superiors care if it works well. Generally, though, management couldn't give two shits about the fact that it's duct taped together and will be a nightmare to maintain 6 months down the road.
