    I think I ranted about this before but they keep testing my patience.

    I made a mockup of a dashboard that could hold a couple of icons distributed across the layout (left side nav bar, header, etc...). It is similar to the new Gmail look and feel.
    They never said how many icons they needed, and don't know how many there will be in total. But every 4-5 weeks I am asked to come up with additional icons for more features.

    That system isn't scalable at all, and the UI looks ridiculous.
    Instead of consulting these decisions with me they just took my initial layout and have used it as a template for all their ideas, turning the app into a fucking Frankenstein.

    They really don't give a flying fuck about making a user-centered app, they just want to please the business department.
