Am I Happy At Work? Analyzing my entire career
I don't want to sound an asshole, but I will sound an assholle nevertheless.<p>I was damn happy as one can be at 3.5 years in my career. 10 years in, I feel like my happiness and awesomeness has been slowly consumed by corporate politics, unfair promotions and layoffs, bad work ethics and the such.<p>I still like my work. I really really enjoy it when it's productive, and I still feel amazed to see the green checkmark on my CI after a long and challenging git push - but after so many years and a couple companies it's just work.<p>There are some real cool places and projects to work though, you just need to dig through the "look we're cool let us enslave you" crap.
