> shit hitting the fan often enough all of the walls are brown is management's, not worker problem

Sure, but as a worker how do I actually convince my bosses to hold themselves or each other accountable? Shit flows downhill and I'm close enough to the bottom it lands on me, not my bosses

I'm not speaking in hypotheticals. I've received the "not a team player" speech a number of times in my career for refusing to do continuous overtime

I love building software, I love writing code, but man am I increasingly convinced I'm not cut out for the industry
