I spend at least 6 hours a week arguing with bots owned by other teams, as I’m unable to reach a human before I bypass their bot. 10k person company, clients are paying for my time.

I would be tempted to send my own bot to do that drudgery

It may be that they’re protecting their time.

		Right. Somewhere there’s a dashboard which lists those 6 hours as time saved.

Just build a bot to bypass their bot.

Corpo bullshittery is the best kind of work. Get paid without actually ever doing anything. Its heaven.

Being alienated from the outcome of your labor is far from my idea of heaven.

Not if you enjoy making things and take pride in your work.

		Actually having to work and take responsibility is extremely exhausting compared to corp life, I experienced both, I currently have no corp job, am responsible for a lot of apps and hate every part of it. Boreout is so much better than burnout and I never worked a job that allowed me to have none of them.

That's some odd image of heaven.
