I'm that guy in my current company. When I get brought in to an existing project, the first thing I look for is the README. To my disappointment, it either doesn't exist at all, it's the default generated, or it's 1 or 2 years outdated. So during project on-boarding, I document everything I can, create or update the README, then commit and push to the repo.
In all of my coworkers across all projects, I'm the only one who does this. I'm pretty sure nobody reads them either. I don't mind though, it has paid for itself countless of times already, since I always reference it.
