Not that's it's really on topic, but...
The same thing anyone else would have done - moved onto other
opportunities.
Studied more, got another contract, continued the learning curve, left it

again.
Oh, and done some spreading of the word amongst my circle of peers, and
some other palces, to see that nobody else gets sucked in as well. :-)
