    My 1up Has been working by himself for the last 10 years, so he has trust issues and trouble working with differing code opinions. I would fight for more control, but honestly after 20 years in this industry, I’m perfectly fine doing only what is assigned to me.

      Except when they tell you to start using a new library, but you can’t read documentation.
      And finish the feature within the day.

        I tell them I can’t and why. Put it back on their plate. Just make sure every communication is documented in text. If they fire me, unemployment is a great 6 month vacation. 😅
