This is the wrong venue for this opinion, but software engineering is the embodiment of boredom. We are glorified filing clerks, we spend all our time convincing computers to accept messy inputs from ourselves or other process. Even when we "solve hard problems", they mostly come down to convincing a computer to process some mundane data faster. At the end of the day, we spend all day in front of a monitor talking to the most pedantic bureaucracy ever made, one with no human leeway unless explicitly specified. But we have so many tricks to convince ourselves we're not bored or boring! We "automate", "solve hard problems", and "optimize".
