Cycle of Resenting Coworkers/Bosses

Okay, so maybe I’m crazy. But I feel like in my adult life, I’ve gotten into a cycle of resenting (some) coworkers and my bosses. It goes like this: Get a new job, follow the rules and be good, work for about a year, begin to understand the company, figure out rules are dumb, begin resenting (some of) the people I work with for taking the whole thing so seriously. Granted maybe because I’ve primarily worked in customer service/retail and it’s about quality AND quantity, but one thing I can’t stand is a person who takes their job above and beyond unnecessarily. Can anyone relate?
