I think the more likely reason why validation errors show up all over the internet is because for 99% of business/entertainment/service on the internet they are irrelevant. Personally I would not like Firefox to fail to render on HTML validation errors, what a terrible idea that would be. In the meantime, I have no idea what HTML validation has to to do with not enjoying working for someone else. Swap "programming" from the sentence: Programming for somone else sucks. With "carpentry" or "plumbing" or "manufacturing" or "cooking" and you'll have the same bitter, burned out employees. The trick to life is to avoid being bitter when asked to get things done, and rather take pride in having been asked to help someone get something done. If you don't feel appreciated in your work, look for something else to do. If there is literally nothing else you can do, being bitter isn't going to make life any better. Not to sound like an asshole, but I have very little patience for people who lack creativity in how they use their time. Yes, I've been frustrated at my work before, and listless in the face of a project I don't want to start/finish, but I find a way to keep working, or I'd be looking for something else to do.
