I did what I could with a handful of selenium scripts, then hit a road block because we didn't have ssh access to a chunk of the autoscaling hosts. Gave up after that, told the customer rep to tell them we can't do it, and gave my two week notice about a month later.
Ouch, that has to be rough to endure. I'm glad you seem to be in a better place now. Good on you for doing the right thing and getting the hell out of there when your options ran out.
