    Getting paid under min wage to develop and deploy software that if wrong could ruin people's lives in a cowboy dev shop with no guidance or tools with a boss who proudly told me his teenage pass time was throwing bricks at cars from an overpass.

    No automated deployment manual installing bug fixes onto 140 tablets one by one in a hotel room the night before the event, working the entire weekend unpaid and then being expected to turn up on Monday.

    oh and long car journeys to said events with boss driving he demanded i sit there in silence no radio and can't look at my phone for several hour drives. I learned how to lucid dream cos i was tempted to grab the wheel and crash us into something.

    He radicalised me as well by writing down my wage and his wage on a piece of paper and telling me this is why I need to work for free over my weekends to deliver x because the money paid needs to cover his wage.

    Permanent psychological damage.

      Amazing shit. Truly a mindboggling strategy. "I am your boss. You must pay my wage with your work because my work is not worth my wage." Bro how do you think that will go?

        Thing is this guy was the antichrist. He didn't do things for money he quite literally just liked watching people suffer. He did it to make me feel bad that was all.

        So glad he's dead now. Funnily enough died very shortly after retiring, I think torturing his staff is all that kept him going.
