MANAGMENT IS THE FAILURE HERE, 100% they put you in a position where you could fail. too bad they will not acknowledge it or realize it. your skill set is very valuable, Mabe beyond what you know, ask for some private messages from members on how much.

Make a list of what is important to you at next job, make no concessions to your list. Your mental health is very important. your wife will be a great help to you on this matter, she should be there at any job interviews, because she has to live with any BS you bring home.

it is just a damn job.

Ask the employer what is important to them, money? have them make you brake king, now your numbers will be impressive. CSI? now get salary, with realistic bonus, not a carrot on stick, if bonus not met, get it redefined in 4 pay periods, not annually.

THEY REALLY DO NEED YOU MORE THAN YOU NEED THEM, AND THEIR BS. NOTHING WRONG WITH AN HONEST DAY PAY, FOR AN HONEST DAY WORK.

Please keep us updated on your journey. Best of luck to you. km
