where would I work/what is my dream job?
dream job:
- running my own company from local office. I almost don't even care what I'm doing. I want to be an entrepreneur. Just trying to find something I really care about enough to be good at it is the current issue, and have family and bills to pay.
second best:
- telecommuting full-time/contract from local coffee shop
why do I hate my current job?
- IT, not a real dev shop. (lesson learned- if you like development, don't work anywhere with IT in the name or the dept. or organization)
- political. disorganized. unmotivating. no accountability. low morale rampant. (lessons learned: ask about these during interview. Consider not working for a large company, non-profit, nor educational institution if you like the idea of owning your own business and like business)
- don't care about business/money or doing what is best for customer (lessons learned: ask about this during interview and don't work for a large company, non-profit, or educational institution)
- no ability to create change. (lesson learned- don't work for a large company, nor larger mid-sized)
- hate the culture (lesson learned- do your best to understand culture via research of org you want to work for)
- hate the location (I took the job because it was convenient to interview there after previous company moved, but they had moved to a location I didn't want to work at)
- hate the commute (this is hard to avoid)
