I'm having a really hard time with coworkers being blind to the issues they create. I'm not sure if it's because they just want to hide their mistakes or they actually believe they are making good decisions. I feel like being a software developer is about helping the customer and helping your teammates. Coding is easier than ever, so why not make the day to day work simple.

I know I'm not being too sensitive because certain things are just categorically wrong like the avoidance of using ES6 modules and sticking to copy/paste development. On top of that, the old devs whove been here for a while are just complacent and bully developers who are trying to do better. It's just so confusing to me.

So I feel like I'm in this situation where I just have to nut up and stand up for what I know is best. I have the experience and know how to do the right thing and make everyone's lives easier. What's pathetic is I know that some teammates are going to hope me and supportive devs will fail so they can just go back to their old way of doing things.

But I'm going to persist. Too far along in life to give up and put up with this shit. What would my future kid think? I want my sucess in this scenario to be a lesson that I can give them as they grow. I need to get through this and make software that I know I can make.

So here's to mogging these shitters.

Anyways fuck off now.
