This is a question My job: Expectation vs Reality

When I worked as a window cleaner, everybody - and I mean everybody - I knew asked me the "how's yer father" question. The truth was that I was always knackered and freezing, and the only nudity I saw was some fat bloke's arse. Tell us how your work differs from the expectation.

Thanks to Rotating Wobbly Hat for the idea

Got a job as a designer. - most of you know this one.
Was hired as they liked my work. I'll get to design stuff at this company I thought - Every job ever -
Every middle management cunt tells me how to design.

They come over and start with "I'm not a designer but....." then hand over a list of things to change. Then they change that. Then they say they didn't like what I've done. Then they go back to what I made first and say they liked what they've done.

I no longer care. A lot of this stuff I would find embarrassing to put on my CV. I guess that's what they pay me for.

the most recent company is odd - the boss (and his boss) leave me alone and don't change anything. The things they ask for have been well thought-out reasons for the change that I agree with.
I can't cope with this freedom and it's hard to break of of the shell I put up with for the past 15 years. FML.

You know what, if you really want people to believe that you're R** F********, perhaps you should pick a completely different username?
