It's an almost exact copy of my last few months, right down to the 10am start.
Except that all our other senior engineers got laid off and there's nobody to pair with, I don't give two fucks about bullying because at this point the entire company knows I'll quit on the spot if they try, and our problems are mostly that the remaining team cannot understand the terrifying eldritch decision making process that led to fun little patterns like "wrap every API call in a try/catch and then ignore the errors".
I am seriously considering doing a TAFE course and becoming an electrician.
I wish the abominations software engineers create were as regulated and fixable as a bad wiring job. I would feel absolutely chuffed to work in an industry with licensed inspectors and standards bodies.
