You're not crazy or harsh. This is a very real problem. I have been stuck doing business development at every company I've worked for. There's always some shitty load-bearing Django app whose schema determines what the business is capable of doing, and somebody's gotta maintain it. It's gotten to the point where I assume that any interesting things I do will be outside of work and not for pay.
