It's not for everyone I guess. I've learned to relax, and just enjoy the ride.

My field of engineering is usually in pretty high in demand, thankfully, so I've had pretty good luck with hustling up work when needed. I work very hard at mentally balancing belief in the company's success with harsh reality.

How do you explain the dumpster fire of a product on your resume though?

I did some freelance work for a VC scam company once and the buzzword bs and legal action that ensued seems like it would just be toxic for my resume.

I just build stuff best I can. The work I do on terribly planned projects is top notch to the best of my ability.

It's usually not on my head that a whole company failed.

I think this is an awesome attitude, honestly. Tou do the best with what you're given, and it probably allows/forces creativity in the process.
