I held a job for 9 years that expected that of me for at least half of that time, and I was miserable. Towards the end of my time there, I was getting migraines at least once a week. After I quit, no more migraines, at least for a year maybe more. Now I've found a job that doesn't expect me to submit to arbitrary authority. In fact now when I butt heads with people over stupid rules, management backs me up. I've even been promoted to work closer with the people who I butt heads with because it improves our product in the long run. Point being, we all have our very particular sets of skills, and if an employer doesn't want to make use of them, fuck them and find another.
