I passionately despise these overpaid morons I work, or rather serve for. I have no idea how the hell did these idiots get to be where they are today. I guess some people are extremely lucky enough to be getting paid for doing exactly nothing besides being stupid, obnoxious, lame and ugly…
The truth is, I do love my job as a programmer. It’s not exactly my dream job. In fact, I don’t know what is but 5 years ago, I couldn’t imagine myself be doing any sort of programming at all. Now, I can safely say that I’m really good at this job. I love the part where I get to creatively and analytically fix problems and offer solutions. I like seeing how a system that I developed actually eases others’ task, overcome common problems and most importantly, deliver correct outputs. It’s a great feeling when people come up to me and tell me how my ‘creation’ has really helped them and save them time.
Sadly, top level managements are so overpaid nowadays that they became fatter, uglier, lazier and super duper spoiled. They all have this common bad breath and delusional fantasy that someday soon, computers can read their minds and then do everything for them. They insist to go paperless. They insist a new system must be developed for them and at the same time, they couldn’t be bothered with typing or clicking anything at all. Like I said, they want a freaky computer that can read minds. But then, the computer must only recognize to read their minds, not ours (the kuli-kuli minds). Aha, the thoughts that they are sending to the computer shall be encrypted to increase security. Okay la, boss, noted! To these pathetic top level bastards, you guys suck!
It sucks cos I do like what I’m currently doing but these people are giving me unnecessary stress and headaches by asking dumb questions and making ridiculously impossible demands… *Sigh*
Switching career at this point of my life is such a bizarre idea that even the thought of doesn’t make much sense right now. I know I should be doing something else. Maybe I’m naturally gifted at doing something else. Maybe I just haven’t meet with the right people just yet. Maybe I haven’t ask the right questions or simply, maybe I just don’t own the courage to change my own fate. I hate being a typical Taurus. I should be born a Leo or Sagi to make this happen! Let’s just hope and pray that in the next 5 years time, I don’t have to look back and ask “what if…”.
i totally understand how you feel.
mine with one additional prob – cutting cost.
“i want this-this-this-and-this, but make sure you cut the cost here-here-here-and-there!”
i need to prepare/buy a ferrari, but the budget that i have is just enough to buy a kancil!
how la?
