I can succinctly state why I hate working on projects inherited from others, where a huge code base is inherited from bad programmers (and I have yet to work on a project where I have not inherited code from bad programmers, because quite frankly, those projects stay where they are because the client is happy!!!)
It's because I'm spending my time debugging sh*t that isn't my sh*t, it's someone else's. And very few things piss me off more than having to spend even a miniscule fraction of my time on this planet fixing other people's sh*t.
[edit]And I tend to find the most stinkiest sh*t written by Ruby on Rails code monkeys.[/edit]

Wholeheartedly agree.

I have recently been advertising myself as a plumber. Plumbers fix systems, clogged with other people's shiit and that is what we do. If it wasn't clogged, they wouldn't be calling us.

Pretty sure I saw a video once where something like this happened. There may have been some funky guitar in the background...

Ya but did the plumber lay some pipe?

Except usually a clog is just in one pipe. Sure, it may take a 50 foot snake to clear it, but then it's done, unless the pipe is infested with the roots of some tree downstream, then you usually call someone else. 
Point being, it's one pipe, one tool, and a lot of muck. Code sh*t is a maze of pipes, numerous tools, and the muck never seems to go away, it just gets pushed around to other pipes.

Have you ever inherited code from good programmers?

I have recently, actually. One of our senior devs left the company for greener pastures and I moved into his team to pick up his work. His code is actually quite nice, and a lot of it is way beyond stuff I have ever done before, so his intuitive naming conventions and copious comments are quite helpful.

Nice, I must say it's not too often I hear that.

Pity the bad programmer who inherits code from a good programmer. He probably wouldn't understand any of it.
I may not last forever but the mess I leave behind certainly will.
