    Guten Tag. Oh the fun they are going to have when they query the date at multiple different places and it just ticks over to a new day at 00:00:00.

    For those wondering: Tag is German for day.

    Only benefit seems to be the translation, so if you want der Tag, you don't need to remember the English translation. Of course, you do need to remember "get". Could have used "holTag" , "holStunde", usw.

    And monat means month, which means that most of these internals have falsely named variables.

    @sibtrag I am wondering how he is handling getting VAT numbers

    Whatever they hired, it was not a C# developer - looks to me more like a Java developer pretending to be a C# developer, a pretty common sight.

    private String getDatum()

    String is written in lower case (keywords always are and preferred over types) and method/property/type names are always PascalCase no matter the visibility.

    I've done code reviews of an in-house project being remodeled by a co-worker. This is no criticism of his work; it's fine. But the parts he didn't write were like this:

    private int _my_value;
public int my_value { 
     get { 
        return _my_value; 
     } 
     set { 
        _my_value = val; 
     }}

    Guess the programmer's native language.

    "Datum" is a singular of "data" from Latin, it's not the same as "date(s)".

    C/C++? Not knowing auto properties and using snake_case smells like it :-)
