Recently I've been feeling like I finally got a good working grasp of my responsibilities at work, right as I gave my two weeks' notice. Well, this morning I got a big reminder of why I'm moving on!

I'm responsible for building software releases that get distributed among a number of internal and external users. People that have requested specific features are responsible for verifying their updates work correctly. However, most of the time I never hear back from them. Zo what happens is when shit breaks, it's instantly MY fault for not checking with the requesters that it's all good to go.

But if I stay the course and demand that I get everyone's buy-in that everything is correct, there's one guy that never does it, which causes delays. Then I have no fewer than four managers get on my case for "What's taking so long omg?"

So yesterday I said fuck it, I'm just going to verify this jerk's stuff for him. This morning I got an email from my condescending coworker saying "you cannot do this, this violates our process, and only so-and-so can verify that it functions correctly."

Basically, damned if I do, damned if I don't. And they can't seem to figure out why I'm leaving! In fact, when said abusive coworker found out I was leaving, his first reaction was "Who?"

Middle fingers for everyone! Whooooooshhhhh
