Sounds a lot like most enterprise development. You don't write much code in that line of work day-to-day, you do lots of plumbing instead. With Java I found myself spending as much time writing XML to get A wired up to B as I was writing Java code. I also remember using Hippo CMS on a project that wasn't well suited to it. That was the double whammie of enterprise Java and all its warts (complicated maven build system, XML coming out of my ears) AND the 'square peg, round hole' problem whereby the sold solution isn't actually remotely possible with the technology chosen out of the box. It was around that time I quit that job.
