Not saying i had the best work life balance, and ive learned my lesson of not wasting air time on deaf ears... I was so enthusiastic after graduating .. i adopted the product, made it upgradable (8 year old repo, 1 programmer before me who was a sysadmin) - made it into a modern 12 factor app, before i even knew what that was. One thing i learned is that innovators dont belong in certain environments .. those innovators didnt belong where they were .. and that was their wake up call, at least, it was mine. Now i found a work place that appreciates me energy, and took me in as a fullstack dev and im so thankful, and careful. Im sure some devs there cant hear what i have to say. I learned, to speak less. Do more. Hobby? Ill make my own. A work place needs me to make it better - not to have me judge it .. its not easy thing to balance or properly execute if you Want to keep your soul. For my next job, I was careful, it took me 4 months of interviews that tried to pitch a junior/mid and secretly wanted a senior .. but eventually, i found a home. But sometimes its really necessary to wake up, and see that your efforts are being wasted, and move on. Left them better than i found them, and but i neglected myself and it was a valuable lesson in self care and the significance of my own time. Another important lesson is growing beyond having milk teeth .. we should look around, and see where we are, and what kind of people are there ... are we making enemies, or injecting spirit? Its no easy, those devs didnt belong in those companies to begin with. It was a life lesson to all involved.
