How have we taken the most autistic job and tacked a stupid, worthless, autistic unfriendly process on to it? (the answer of course is capitalism)

I want to quit but I can't get another job and even if I could it would just be more of this shit.

I worked on such a project in my old job. The application was the core product of their business and it was a sprawling mess that had evolved from constantly adding layers to a small proof of concept application.

There was never time for anything other than adding new features. You never got to fixing the architectural flaws or streamlining things. We couldn't even fix the ugly and confusing UI that every customer was complaining about.

A former co-worker once joked "we should find a way to make fixing infrastructure a new feature". Fixing the giant holes in our code-base as a service.
