That's me... I loved coding, I did it in my spare time. Then I got a job it's been downhill since then. I thought maybe I was a junior. Then I thought I was at the wrong company. Then I told him maybe I was working in the role or programming stack?.
But that's not it, I like writing code, I like refactoring code, I like debugging code but I don't like that it'd be held as a knife to my throat every day forever.
At my job there has never been a slow day. At one of my past job our manager had to go for 2 weeks and that was the most productive we had ever been. We shipped more , built more , collaborated more, and it all felt like a breeze.
Right now I feel as engineers we have been subjugated to being a coding monkey. You are told what to do, when to do, how to do and how much you should have done by now. You are monitored, of made to dance, and forced to be glad that you even have the chance.
I've spoken to people who have been in the industry for 10 15 years and they say this was not how it used to be
