After 9 months of working the night shift and doing the job better than most... I got fired. Not let go... FIRED. Why? Because I would not be bullied or BS'd into doing stupid stuff. Because I asked too many questions and gave too many suggestions about how to improve what my department was doing.
I've come to understand that when there is an entrenched system, it has already found its equilibrium and will fight back if you attempt to change it. If you're going to go work for someone else, just know that they are just as resistant to change as politicians and plutocrats. It's tough to swim against the tide and shake up the status quo.
Sometimes they just want your body to do the work...and not your mind.
