I work as “Web UI Developer”. Basically I implement UI/UX that the design team comes up with.
But on my day-to-day I feel pretty miserable. It’s like all I do is play the “manager game”, journaling stuff I do during the day so I can bring it up in our daily meeting. While making it sound like great effort or important.
I dunno, I feel very empty and a huge liar. I feel like I do nothing (of value maybe?) at my job. Maybe software development is not for me after all.
I want to make my own app and make a living out of it but I lack the design/UX skills to make it shine. I can implement, but designing it is a whole different world.
I’m not sure if I’m the problem, if the area is not for me, or if working in general is just like that and the system is beyond broken. Is this burnout? I’m honestly so lost in my own thoughts.
