I hear what you're saying, I do.
Let me just quote you by saying "Commute is unfortunately your problem. Not theirs." and answer that with this...
The recruiter knew about the fact that I would like to work from home from the get-go. This promise was not fulfilled,m albeit the series of events that followed! I have raised the issue with them AGAIN, and that's when they said "We've never had anyone work from home before so we wouldn't know how to approach it". And there in lies my frustration and anger! -
@apisarenco
And even though I am here, and I'm either going to work, at work or headed home, that's 11 and a half hours of my day, on average!
Surely the 9 and half hours that I'm here, make it worth my fucking time to be here by say, oh I don't know, hiring some more developers to work on the project and join the "team" I'm supposed to be leading.
All I'm getting at the moment is...
return Promise<void>(); -
@divil
Finding a job that's within my area is next to impossible!
Then there's the next thing of having to find a company culture that I could potentially fit into that would actually make the commute worth it!
My friend has a company, but it's predominantly based on PHP, which I'm not to keen on either... *sigh*
I actually wanna RAGE QUIT right about now!!!
I wanna fuck off and go somewhere where my talents are appreciated and I'm actually listened to! I'm reaching the point where I hate my job and don't actually want to be here any more.
I asked to be able to work from home (long story... see previous rants) and that was "shut down" after numerous attempts and even when working from was a prerequisite that somehow got lost in translation.
I was stuck in traffic for almost 3 hours yesterday and it is known that there are currently roadworks on my route, and yet they don't seem to move on the notion of working from home.
When I work it out, I sit in my car on average for over 40 hours per month! That's another fucking work week just so that I can get to and from work everyday. Again, they can say what that want, but I mentioned it several times that I wanted to work from home.
They're story is... "We've never had anyone work from home before so we wouldn't know how to approach it". Ok fine, I guess... FIGURE IT OUT, FFS!!!
The other thing was that I would be the "team leader" of the project. With me speaking to a management, they made me the leader. Big fucking whoop! My next question is the leader of what exactly are you making me? Because at the moment I'm the only fucking person working on the project! The other chap who is on "my team" is so busy with these other small side projects that in the 6 months he's been here, the only time he's actually had anything to do with the project is when he's peeped over my shoulder! Also, there was supposed to be more than just one other developer on the "team", but alas!
I'm not happy here at all anymore and I am actually starting to feel the depression creep in and there's nothing I can seem to do about it! I can't stand the traffic to and from work and they have not tried to make anything worthwhile when I get to work, even after my numerous requests!
