I'm very... Selfish? I suppose is the way to put it.
Beyond what's required, I don't really care about the 'vision'. I'm here to exchange effort for money.
As long as it's reasonably in my skill set/responsibility and doesn't require me to push a boundary like kicking puppies, that's the deal of the day
I care about how I feel about waking up in the morning more than anything. The people I need to work with should be decent, and I don't do well pigeonholed
Finding a place with
- capable teammates
- restraint to not commit members to the first thing they are found to be good at forever
... is harder than you'd expect
If my anxiety reaches a certain level or consistency, I'll look elsewhere
I'm a wizard with Linux internals yet lately find myself "the network guy", for example.
If I didn't know my current team could catch up I'd be carrying so much burden
