> I literally cannot meet my performance goal if I take more than 1 day of sick/vacation day PER YEAR. why not get another job?

  Because for all the bullshit I have to put up with, and all the things I hate about management, and all the things that could easily be better but for one asshole vice-president needing to cosplay Business Hero ... for all of that, the job is deeply interesting and I learn a ton every day. And virtually every other job on the market is mind-numbingly boring and pointless. And because I like my immediate teammates a lot. And because the issues I'm railing against are incredibly pervasive in most companies in the United States and probably beyond. Our capitalism has been completely taken over by a caste of parasitic leeches who enshittify everything they touch and I am under no illusion that any other job would be any different. But I do also look for other jobs regularly. Finding a job that is both interesting (<1%) and not full of shithead management (<5%) is about 1 in 2,000.
