I'm a bit embittered. It was a real shock, encountering the new environment. I rapidly learned that it's important for hiring managers to establish dominance in the relationship, which doesn't work so well with people like me.

I made the mistake of working for a company for 27 years, and the culture changed drastically, during that time.

I am a very good person to work with. My LI profile is filled with testimonials as to what kind of person I am. I just believe that humans are very important, and that seems to be an "outlier" philosophy, in today's tech scene.

You and I would be fast friends, I think. I've been talking about empathy at work, and I feel like it's a new concept for some.
