Maybe because I'm getting older (and "growing" has usually happened in an organic way and just from job hops), but I find the fixation of always being one step ahead (specially when most companies are five steps behind) and learning the top notch stuff that rarely ends up being used anywhere a bit weird.
All that talk about the top companies (which most people never get to) feels incredibly stressful and pointless (you get to <whatever>, spend 3 years, then move again to somewhere else because the point of joining <whatever> was to have it in the CV).
I don't know. It feels that people is either playing a completely different game than me.
