Daniil1067yJust quit the job? If it's that unrewarding and you're getting that much stressed it's not worth it.
As an programmer we mostly find jobs easily - I hope also at your place.
Don't let him ruin your life. Be brave and change -
Know this feeling only too well.. start to emotionally detach from this job so you can move onto to a better one. No one needs that shit

That escalated quickly and at a reasonable pace at the same time.
What legacy you workin on? -
While I dislike time tracking being mandatory, I often found the reasons to be simply that I haven't been disciplined or was bad at organizing time or estimating tasks.
When I had large tasks split in 1 month long sprints, it was difficult to track time, and I did it every Monday, and it took me around an hour.
Things got much simpler when I moved to 1 week sprints, and every large task was divided into smaller tasks. I could take on several tasks per day, and it was very easy to track time on them.
So time tracking isn't bad. Bad organization is bad.
You want good code. Your boss wants a product that works, because your boss wants money.
So I had a fun week.
It started off with my boss replying to a co-workers email where he sent his new bank account, saying he doesn't need it untill we close off some baddly planned projects, meaning no paycheck.
Needless to say we were working night and days including weekends on it and put our best into it.
For the next part I need to explain a little background. We have this old legacy system I'm working with for the past 3 years. I keet raising the red flag we need a new one. Nothing happened. So every time I worked with it I kept thinking how to improve the parts. Almost two years went into thinking and planning the new system untill I got a green light. It was most satisfying - the day I got to build something good and awesome. I drew all the data structures, laid out the foundations and started building ontop of it. It was amazing and I was really proud of it. Then suddendly client wanted to see something and the decision was made we threw it together quickly with the old legacy system. It was on hold 'till then due to work overload.
Boss wrote me this week if I can put the project from git on a server, where he out sourced the completition into India where they will finish it. On thr question if they can't work on git, he replied: "should they?" -.-
To top it all up, I got a notice at the end of the week if I don't fill his shit time tracking system (that takes me one hour/day to insert all entries) by monday he'll deduct a sizable portion of my paycheck.
I AM WORKING FOR YOU ALL THE FUCKING TIME BECAUSE YOU LACK RESOURCES AND I THOUGHT A TEAM STICKS TOGETHER AND SAVES EACH OTHERS ASS! I DONT HAVE TIME TO ENTER YOUR FUCKING STUPID TIME ENTRIES IN YOUR FUCKING BUGGED SYSTEM EACH DAY ON TASKS THAT DON'T EVEN EXIST BITCH! MAKE IT BETTER FIRST!! OH! AND NO ONE IS MORE QUALIFIED TO FINISH THAT PROJECT THAN ME, I POURED MY FUCKING HEART INTO IT YOU PRICK!
woah.
