« If it was fun people would do it for free. » → I doubt it: not even youtubers do it for free, nowadays... To which you'll say (rightfully) that video making isn't so much fun either... « You're in a business that's usually regarded as one of the most comfortable. » → I must admit I didn't give much thought to the poor little African kids who are starving before posting on my privileged pitfalls. Now I feel guilty about it: who am I to complain about what really boils down to my own inability to handle failure and absent taste for effort. Again, this feels inextricable too... « Have you tried a physically or mentally exhausting job? » → After all this time wasted context-switching, waiting on somebody else to fulfill their depth-10 ticket to unclog the firewall, the borderline unlawful harassment necessary to make them do it, manually testing (my nemesis), compiling (so much that there are memes about this one), people who send "Hi, are you there?" by e-mail during toilet break, aaall the fucking broken docs out there, tHe NOdejS eCOsYstEm (ok, this one was below the belt... Still deserved), I think IT can be mentally exhausting too, in its own way.
