I’ve been at my current job for 10 months. I’ve had three instances where I proposed a solution implementation to a problem, was denied, built the implementation I was told to build, had it break, and then told to build it the way I initially proposed (without any credit to the fact that I initially suggested it, of course).

I had a manager for 5 months, was without a manager for 5 months, and now have a new manager.

I checked out a few months back and haven’t been able to motivate myself to work at all. I would quit but I’m locked in for a year with golden handcuffs and don’t want to repay my starting bonus. I can’t wait to quit this shit job.

(This isn’t even half of the shit I’ve gone through since starting here, but only the most relevant pieces to the topic at hand. I could go on and on.)
