I don’t think I have it in me to become an old programmer. I absolutely love programming. It’s the best feeling in the world. A decade of doing it for money, being treated like an assembly line worker who gets bossed around by a PO that has no technical knowledge, and being constantly asked to drive the bus in the wall has sucked every last bit of enjoyment out of it. Or forcing me to go with a brain dead design that I’ve warned will cause us 10x the headache afterwards. I’m not even 40 but can’t wait to retire and leave all these dumpster fires behind.
