Yes I realize some/most of us have a privileged job. However, I believe that it's reasonable that people who are exceptionally talented expect something better.

Yes I realize some/most of us have a privileged job. However, I believe that it's reasonable that people who are exceptionally talented expect something better. Sometimes you know you are exceptionally talented, they tell you, you know how to build stuff, how to fix stuff, how to get to the heart of the problem, how to learn new stuff quickly, how to write down code and documentation. Yet you have move countries (sometimes at the expense of family and quality of life) and/or spend hours every day commuting because your company values physical presence above all that. I don't think that's an unreasonable thing to complain. Even if we are lucky, lucky to have talent or just lucky that the talent we have is highly valued (unfortunately not all talented people are so lucky), I still think it's reasonable to complain.
