> Some people love me, some people hate me but I always get nailed on the cross eventually. I can't do a job where I keep my head down. I can't imagine anything more soul destroying than spending 8 hours of my day doing something that I don't fully believe in. So then I fight for what I believe in, and then I get shot. It's like a repeating cycle that I can't escape.
I feel this so deeply man. I said it in another thread I fucking hate when people tell me this but you're not alone.
I hope there is a day where both you and I find accepting organizations that can put our strengths and abilities to good use. A true mutually beneficial arrangement, not just "a job".
You're not wrong to want to work on something you are driven by and care deeply about. That this is a thing some people (myself included) actually want and is NOT crazy. You don't HAVE to be a mindless corporate zombie, professional bootlicker or other words for "subservient wage slave".
Unfortunately finding a situation like this requires INCREDIBLE luck or generational wealth.
Society is designed to keep us out and only recently has acceptance for neurodiversity been even a thing people would speak out loud.
