And this is why programming is a horrible job. Once you lose the satisfaction, which happens pretty quickly all that is left is irritation and confusion and anger. Its absolutely miserable work. But I'm completely stuck in it.



I still feel the satisfaction. Not as often as at the beginning, but I still feel it sometimes, even after 35 years.


I need a wankerless environment to feel the satisfaction… otherwise I never do.
