And really, is this the way you engage with people who are giving you actual practical free advice about how to fix the shitty situation you're in? Like Scott said: your attitude stinks. And that will shine out of you at interview. You might think that that's a load of touchy-feely bollocks, and that's your right, but hiring managers are people like me and we're well into the touchy-feely bollocks, because it doesn't matter how good you are: hiring an asshole onto the team just isn't worth it.

They create a poisonous atmosphere and the added productivity is not worth the trouble at all because everyone else's suffers. At my current place the biggest part of the interview is team fit. It's extremely important. Someone who's going to whine about everything isn't going to pass that filter. Regards, -scott Welcome to Rivendell, Mr. Anderson.
