    Handed my notice in at work, now every day is a recharge day as I wind down the effort I put in and bask in the glory of everything turning to shit. Gotta teach someone everything I know on Wednesday, in a 45 min session. I suppose I can point to a few of the most important things and say you will want to work out how that code works at some point.

    Even our consultant has said it takes easily over a year to learn to a somewhat competent level and that is just the front end.

    You don't need to feel ashamed. The system is so broken that just surviving each day is a victory on its own. If that's all you can do - if every day is a recovery day from the last day - it's still worth celebrating because you're still fucking alive.
