I'm a full-stack web developer who loves to garden, cook, read, and dance. I enjoy the ritual of making coffee, and sometimes I crave cheese and other times I crave fish sauce.

Work
Software Engineer at Blizzard - My thoughts and opinions are my own.
teams have stopped celebrating each their own wins and the wins of other teams (morale is tanking)
management suggestions of building skills in a particular area you have no interest in growing in
lack of respect for time. Meetings are routinely missed or canceled. Extra hours are expected while personal time is scoffed at.
By the time these indicators ring true, my frustration levels are on high alert. What is important when considering these things for me is to base my decisions on what I am moving towards and not what I'm moving away from. It's easy to get into an "I need to GTFO"-mode but I take my time so I am not rushing into a similar situation at my next gig.
My signs include:

That seems like a great indicator! Definitely keeping this in mind as a leader.
