This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Yeah same here.

I'm in a similar situation at the moment where my team is pretty unorganized, most employees are from an external company, and noone bothers to explain shit to me, even after I asked several times already. Plus, because of unenforced rules, it's basically 100% home office and noone is ever present, even if I go in the office. I COULD just do nothing and pretend like I'm working all of the time, noone ever contacts me anyway. But that would genuinely make me wanna die.

I'm already feeling super useless most of the time and try to chew through old legacy code to at least gain an understanding of the project. It's somewhat working, but it's tough to keep up my motivation. Overall I kinda oscillate between feeling useless and frustrated because I'm just not as productive as I would want to be as an employee.

Anyway, I'm already sending out CVs to other job offers. This is not the ideal life for me and I don't plan on keeping it going for longer than necessary.
