Seems like a good time to remember the old adage, if you think everyone
else is the asshole then you should consider that it's really you who's
the asshole. If it's taken a full year and you're not done yet, maybe
you're just not suited to this type of work. I'm not trolling either:
it's not for everyone and that's fine. There's lots of things to do
and you'd probably be happier doing something else.
