I'm a graduate developer with 1 year experience. Was asked to improve the performance of a feature which was written by external consultants on £1000 per day, and in its worst case takes 2 hours to complete. I rewrote it and got it down to 1 minute 27 seconds.

Manager: "Well yeah, but can you not get it any faster?"

    Nice work! They should have complimented you. Try to ultimately find work with a company that appreciates you. They are out there. So nice work!

    Wow, I greatly dislike your manager. He's probably one of those that thinks he's doing the right thing for you "by pushing your limits." I've had those types. Only seems to happen when the manager has no idea about programming/development.

    Did you say Manager or Wanker? Good work, you will have to go to grow though.

    Ungrateful bastard, had something similar once where i fixed something the senior had spent days on and was accused of "Googling it"

    Thanks guys! The empathy is appreciated. The sad reality of having a non-technical manager lead a technical team.
