I see shit that could be better and work to improve it instead of just saying “meh not my problem”
or, I mean, I used to, when we were a growing company full of people who also worked to make things better. now we’re big enough to have a bunch of people that don’t really care and are perfectly fine with repeatedly wasted effort and it’s actually not my job to do some stuff. so instead I just judge them for their shitty performance doing a thirty minute task every week that would take five minutes with an hour of initial investment
you don’t have to settle for being made to do bullshit tasks, though. if somebody is making you complete a ten steps process that should be five, change it. if it can’t change, fuck that place
nah, I’m just gonna settle into my position and do what I’m compensated for and try not to worry about what I’m not. if something makes my life shittier, I’ll fight to improve it. otherwise, I’ll offer my opinion and move on.
if you can’t make the connection between what I’m saying and a poorly set up form, I’m not going to bother explaining more

This is what I would do as well.
It’s the professional response.
Could be purposeful to see how one reacts to fustrating situations.
if the reaction they want is to see you bend over and take it, fuck that place
things should be neat and orderly and proper, so that people can spend their effort on the stuff that isn’t instead of broken-window tasks
If that’s your idea of being bent over, how the fuck do you survive any work place?

Sounds like it’s time for you to look for a new company. Anytime I feel jaded or disgruntled, I leave for greener fields.
But what does any of that have to do with filling out weird forms?
