> pretend I care about the product
This form of hypocrisy is a recipe for burnout.
- BlargMcLarg 5y agoUnfortunately, the opposite is often met with repercussions, and finding a job where one cares about the product is still a privilege. So yes, many of us accept the potential burnout outcome while trying to find something better.
- fsloth 5y agoI would not call it hypocrisy but necessary. I mean what can you respond to outreaches like "Our client has a billion euro building project X, our collaborator has promised them Y, but our product can't do Z, can you fix it please" Either you respond with sufficient gravity which enables the stakeholders to trust you that you can get the job done, or you admit you don't care anymore and find another job.
