Unlike many here, I never had a computer when I was young. I knew what it was, but had no interested in it. I enjoy sports, handcraft more than video games.
Went to college for EE/ME program, found out I hated the program, but too many Math & Science credits to do another degree from scratch. CS degree was a natural fit. Decades later, I'm still in the business.
Got my first job by applying to a bunch of companies at job fair.
I don't love or hate my job, but I do enjoy it and appreciate it. It allows me to make a good living and support my family, etc.. Most of my work are creative, I generally balk against repetitive work (so no reports, or ops work for me).
I'm lucky in a sense that in my career, I usually get interesting work/projects. If I had to deal with what some of my friends and colleagues deal with, I would seriously consider leaving the business.
