Yes, despite what outsiders think, programming is a tough gig. Even in the US, if you look at wages, they have been stagnant since the dot com bubble collapsed if you account for inflation. People are overworked and as recently shown, job security is not really there. Outside the US it's often worse.
I'm sorry you suffered.
- pdimitar 2y agoI still suffer, to this day. Gets more and more difficult as you age. Hopefully I wisened up and I think I started doing the right steps but it's like blowing against the wind; ultimately you'll succeed but... yeah, nevermind. Don't want to complain. I can muscle through it. Not like I have any other meaningful choice either. It's a victory or death situation (not literally but almost). Thanks for your sympathy. <3 Hope I didn't come across as too much of an arse. I am simply way too jaded and burned out.
