> Actually, no, the worst part is the fact that I have to pretend to believe all these companies about their stupid mission statement, and how they're going to save the world
Maybe its really obvious you feel that way and you should find a company that has a product that resonates with you so you don't have to fake it.

You can but don't be expected to be paid high end tech salaries for it.

Easier said than done. It's not for lack of trying. I apply to lots of companies where I actually think that the project is cool, but they don't respond back to me. At that point, what exactly am I supposed to do? Just completely exhaust all my savings until I find my dream job?
I do really try my best to "get into" whatever the company is doing, but it's exceedingly difficult for me to do that, and it's even harder for me to fake enthusiasm.

That's fair, and maybe I should expect it, but it's still exhausting and I don't have to like it.
