My whole career. It has worked for quite a few years already without a hiccup.

What makes this strategy work is the quantity of technical incompetence that's present in nearly all workplaces. I am actually a liked employee (both by superiors and by colleagues), I just have a low tolerance for bullshit. Usually the problem is "the other way around", that is with people that follow processes, use proper corpspeak but don't actually produce much, and are trying to cover the low output with manners.

I've been writing code on and off since I was 8 years old. Of course not professionally :)
