#269 - I'm Burnt Out! The 3 Worst Parts About Being a Software Developer (and why I still love it)
Manage episode 503716884 series 3399111
It’s Labor Day weekend and, honestly? I’m burned out.
Maybe this isn’t the best business move, but I’d rather keep it real with you than fake the whole “everything is great in tech” narrative.
I’ve been plenty vocal about why AI isn’t about to replace us all tomorrow, much to the dismay of to all the AI bros out there.
But here’s the other side: being a developer is nothing like those “day in the life” TikToks where someone shows up to the office around 10AM, gets a fancy coffee, fixes a UI bug and then gets a 400K salary with stock options.
So here it is—my three worst parts of being a software developer.
... and why I still enjoy what I do.
