It could just be that I'm indiscriminate, but I love creating a new system out of nothing, and I love cleaning up gnarly old legacy code.
The only programming problems I find demoralizing, (and the ones I think the grandparent was equating with "Chris" work) are updates or bugfixes in gnarly old legacy code, without having time allocated to give it the refactoring it needs. It's the feeling that the code in question is never going to be important enough to fix properly, and your name is going to be in the logs adding those two lines in the middle of a 400 line function.
