I can't wait until you get laid-off/fired unjustly. I had this same attitude until I got laid off even though I was a high-performer (4/5 and 5/5 on all my bi-yearly reviews).

Now, I'm in it for me and only me. Fuck these companies, they don't care about you so why should I care? I perform to the expectations of my job description but forget going above and beyond.

I honestly don't understand why someone with your sort of attitude doesn't become a freelancer/consultant. If I hated working for companies that much, pretty much no amount of incremental salary would persuade me to not go my own way.

I don't know about you but I think my price is somewhere in the mid-high six figures TCO :-)

I guess I don't care enough about money to spend my time in a situation I find horrible.
