Oh, I am - just not very happily :)
Not to get too into the weeds here, but I could live a long and happy life if I never had to read or write yaml that controls our build or CI pipelines, or troubleshoot layers of Helm and Kubernetes to figure out why our database migrations fail but only when running `alter` statements, or if I never had to manually search for `<FooBar` to figure out where some parameter is being passed from through twelve layers of React components down to FooBar itself.
But I also remember working in a world where Junior Engineer me FTP'ed code directly to production, hoping that `index_new2.php` was the latest, correct file on the shared network drive, and that nobody erased `index_old.bak` over the weekend because I still had to port some functionality over on Monday. (Joke was on me, by Monday the numbers had already come in, and it turns out that using Javascript to do financial calculations was a Very Bad Idea, and the functionality was no longer relevant. Plus, by then, I'd forgotten whether it was in `index_old.bak` or `index2.php.bak`.)
