    You can still take pride in your work and enjoy the creativity of it. I just mean when things go that way that you can rest assured that it wasn’t time wasted. You learned something, you got paid.

    I do know the feeling, I bust my balls recently pulling an app from dev hell to get it out and working and the client from that country seems to be moving away from us, and it sucks. But I learned loads about app development and that framework specifically. I learned dev ops, pipelines, the weirdness of app development compared to backend dev.

    Can’t take it too personally. I career switched mid 30s so I can just cast my mind back to the horrors of shit pay and horrible conditions so that helps keep me appreciating my job.
