I'm young (upper 30s), but I've been programming since I was 10 and I still love it. What I don't love is being forced to work on project after project by employers that don't have the slightest idea what they are doing. At my current job, I've been stuck in the cycle of: -boss will give me the specs -right before I finish, boss decides to change his mind (redesigns, functionality, etc) -There will then be pressure on me to get all of the new changes done in a specific time frame (often not even close to reality). This cycle has repeated 5 or 6 times. I still haven't had one release of the project I was hired to complete. It has pushed me to leave and start my own company.
