This really resonates with me. I’ve come to the conclusion that I’m just a crotchety shit though. Which is probably a good few years after my coworkers came to the same conclusion. I have become either enlightened or jaded enough to not really care much about it at this point though, it’s apparently how I want to live (or need to survive) in the corporate machine. Know thyself, and whatnot.
