I’ve been a software developer for the better part of 20 years and I’m so fed up with this whole situation. Time for a new career.
My CV looks something like:
- Jr Support agent > Sr Support agent > Lead Support agent
- Tech engineer
- DevOps engineer
- DevOps lead
- Sysadmin > Sr SA > lead SA
- Technical Architect> Solution Architect > Sr Arch > Enterprise Arch
- Director of IT
- Raising chickens
Chickens might shit everywhere, scream constantly, and flap their wings just to get attention, much like managers. But they can’t make you polish that shit into a product to sell. And if one gets out of line you can just eat them.

You’re probably aware, but the product (eggs) comes from the same place as the shit. At least for chickens anyway, never seen the anatomy of a manager, but I hear they’re invertebrates so it may be slightly different.
They’re not trying to get attention. They’re trying to express their natural instinctive behaviours, and are being prevented by your violence and cruelty.
“I resign”.
rent ain’t gonna pay itself lol.
But I’m working towards it
Yeah. I hate that the choice is between being miserable or being able to pay the bills. FML
Imagine being born 10,000 years ago where all your work for sustenance would fit in 4 hours weekly…
Imagine being born 10000 years ago where chances that you died before adulthood were significant and even a minor infected cut would likely mean your death, not to mention any more serious injury such as a broken bone 🥰
Don’t get me wrong I hate modern wage slavery just as you do but I also appreciate not being dead yet just because I had a rough accident three years ago.
If you made it to five you’d be fine
