j-g-r14ySame. Fucking. Thing. I love coding. I have no problems working after hours eventually if the project is good and requires it. This crap is slowly consuming my fucking soul. I am getting fucking out of this vicious vortex of doom that is drupal tomorrow.

I got into Drupal when it was at version 4, and followed it through it's releases up to 9. I created dozens of sites with it, and even won 2 awards about 8 years ago, for Drupal work. I really loved it back then.
Then, the problems started showing up. You can spin up a site in 2 hrs, but every time I wanted to do something non-standard, I ran into issues - compatibility issues with modules, race conditions and ordering problems with hooks, confusing errors with unhelpful, useless error messages taking days to track down, and most importantly - the agonizing slowness of each page load during development. With lots of modules loaded up, I've had page load times of over a minute for development -- sure, the layers of caching help for production, but god was working with Drupal painful.
The worst is that there are still shops and devs out there that actually think Drupal is good for serious work -- complex, distributed apps. That's a huge red flag for me now. -
Midir02y@socratesone I know such a person. Dude also ignores all warnings of developers working on the project. We'll probably lose another customer because of this pos of a framework prevents us from advancing quick. It is like a doctor having to do surgery with a rusty butterknife with another blade where the handle is supposed to be.

That's it, I'm done. I'm SO. FUCKING. DONE. Whoever created such a badly monkey ass coded shit and named it "Drupal" should have been aborted with a fucking hanger.
No one was here today because they were all at a Drupal Con that I never heard of. Glad I didn't. So they told me "yeah there are one year bug to fix, if you could do them all in a one work day that'd be greaaaaat". FUCK. YOU.
This shit is slowly sucking my passion away, and while I could spend 15 hours to code per day a few months ago, now I'm stuck to debugging shit that should have work without a Drupal environment. Tomorrow I'm going to see my manager and tell him to get me the fuck out of this and make me do something that would make me enjoy living again. I can't believe I'm getting trouble for this kind of low shit stuff, really.
And it started to rain. Fuck.
