Wow.

A bit depressing (and I don't even work in tech anymore!), but I think he nailed it - it's the rat race. It applies to anyone right now who feels stuck in a job with no meaning.

The whole album addresses this topic, it's very Pink Floyd-ian in the story that it tells through a nearly continuous track. "Pictures of Cats" is one of my favorites, an elegy for the 24/7 cycle of bad news and the toll it takes on us. Definitely worth a listen.

Thanks for the PF comparison - I'll go spend some more time with it. Back in the day I listed to Dark Side of the Moon until I wore out the record.

Really enjoyed this - thank you for sharing
