Hey, you don't know what it's like. Certain people claiming to be engineers have optimized on finding out what you're trying to accomplish and either blocking it or taking credit for it. They also have figured out how to punish people who do work that they are not getting credit for (i.e. authorized). This is their whole 'job' for which they get impressive titles and money for doing little actual work and having little actual knowledge. While you are sitting there coding all day they are off telling some VP about how they have you working on their project that was actually your idea and your sweat. The best policy for an engineer is the one I described.
