I grew up with a foster mother that actively "suppressed" what I did on the computer, banning me for a month if I didn't get changed immediately after school.

Now I've become a senior engineer, but I'm kinda shotty at it, chaotic good in solving problems, but issues with authority and process.

Who knows, maybe I would've became a "run of the mill" engineer if she helped.

As an engineering manager I see problems with authority and process as something usually positive.

This usually leads to more things getting done “right” than “wrong”. IME.

Having the same issues/traits I’m not sure how that gets formed - my upbringing was limitless in many ways.
