Do you guys now understand why I've said it's a sad life? We are so "important" to mankind, yet the best we can do is to buy Noise-cancelling headphones.

- cgh 7y agoFair point, but to be honest nearly all modern work is borderline dystopic, regardless of how "important" it's deemed by society. If you think being a programmer in BigOrg, Inc. sucks, then take a summer and work on a construction site or with a landscaping crew. Trust me, you'll yearn for that loud, open-plan office soon enough. Modern society would quickly implode without plumbers, yet actually being a plumber and crawling around under houses in rat shit is not very fun.
