Topic ---> | Advice for College Kids: don't be a programmer |
Here's the truth: programming sucks.
It didn't use to. It used to be that if you worked really, really hard you could develop a career where you could concentrate, where you could deliver good work without excessive politics, where you actually would find a couple of hours a day that you did not hate your job.
This is all gone.
There are no longer any craftsmen of code.
Programmers do noisy factory work because of people like this assembling software factories and talking about how great it is for the company, but you'll notice they don't mention what the assembly-line-workers think of it:
I love code. I love programming. I love designing software and making a difference.
"Agile" takes that away. You lose the ability to focus, to get that burst of inspiration and speed that makes quality and code. Instead you replace it with a monotonous drone.
Any motivation is destroyed in your craftsmen as they realize all they can do is become a code robot.
I clued in pretty fast. What's really a drag is that I don't have a career any more. I have a job.
And it SUCKS.
I would NEVER choose to be a programmer now and bitterly wish I had picked a differentcareer.

As I am looking through monster.ca postings I keep seeing references which are obviously trying to hide the software factory approach. The spin doctors call this by varying names trying to impose a peer-pressure collective guilt to overcome resistance: "team approach", "collaborative", etc.
The obvious inference is that if you aren't enthusiastic about being a slave, you are not a team player - you must be a selfish jerk.
