As I get closer to working out my detailed plans for FIRE, I'm noticing that my tolerance for the worst aspects of my j*b is diminishing. I'm much more frustrated with [-]time wasting corporate edicts[/-] unexpected new policies, clueless managers, changing product goals and difficult people than I used to be. I don't think the corporate culture is getting any worse. I think I'm getting more sensitive - maybe more sensitized. I'm increasingly frustrated by the stuff I have to put up with, that is part of my work environment, and pretty much always has been.
Anyone else notice work seems worse as retirement plans seem more real? Any advice for how to survive this for the forseeable future (probably years) until my FIRE is ready? I feel like I'm on the verge of chucking it all, even though I am NOT ready, just because I'm going to reach the point where I can't stand it anymore.
