she later told me that I was anti-authoritarian and more likely to do what I thought was right rather than what I had been instructed to do. I am still baffled to this day about how that is an undesirable attribute

Came here to say something similar. Currently hating life and fantasizing how I’d quit my job and burn this bridge

Yup. I’m using the chargers from my old phone

What is a new person supposed to do to learn then? I’ve been stuck trying to figure out what the 5-8 different services, frameworks, libraries, and IDEs all do and I feel very overwhelmed.

At one of my old jobs I remember getting a 9.2 out of 10 on a performance report. When they called me in for a meeting I was thinking I was getting a pat on the back. Nope. It was “you could’ve done better”. That was the day I learned to stop trying and just say fuck it at any job since then.

They. Do. Not. Care. So if I’m going to be treated the same regardless if I put in 110% or 50%, then why bother?
