Does anyone just feel tired, in general? Like the boss is (usually) alright. I like the work and I am good at it. Maybe I'm not feeling challenged enough? Honestly, I'm not sure. In the last retro, I was an 8.5/10 on the happiness index, now I'm a 4...wtf

Duuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck off you bloody infamous basterds flattening their fat asses at Microsoft.

I wasted half of my dev day to configure my wcf rest-api to return an enumeration property as string instead of enum index as integer.

There is actually no out-of-the-box attribute option to trigger the unholy built-in json serializer to shit out the currently set enum value as a pile of characters clenched together into a string.

I could vomit of pure happiness.

And yes.
I know about that StringEnumConverter that can be used in the JsonConvert Attribute.

Problem is, that this shit isn't triggered, no matter what I do, since the package from Newtonsoft isn't used by my wcf service as a standard serializer.

And there is no simple and stable way to replace the standard json serializer.

Christ, almighty!
