> I don't think the third option is really a good strategy in life. A lot of the frustrating things in industry exist for good reasons (that more often than not, turned out to be bad/inconvenient a lot later) and life is too short to get upset at things when you're being paid to understand them. On the other hand, a lot of frustrating things that could be fixed with a modicum of effort are neglected on the basis that "nobody's complained". Sure, pick your battles, but don't be so compliant that you leave easy wins on the table.
