As it turns out my frustration tolerance is very low...I decided to check out of this rotten system and go my own way a few months ago. My stress levels plummeted since.

Yeah... same. Power to those who can function in highly frustrating environments, but for me the only winning move is to not play the game in the first place.

  So what's the alternative?

    Not being a software dev for one

    Being an expensive freelance dev/consultant that gets flown in to solve actual "our shits on fire plz help" problems, instead of an underutilized "human resource" that noone listens to unless you repeat your message 1000 times.

      How does one even reliably find work as an expensive consultant?

      Putting out other people’s fires seems extremely frustrating.

    That's the way. I did it for a few years, both manually and algorithmically, but am back at a job for now.
