Programmer’s satisfaction
It had been some times I don’t do FULL DAY coding in my daily work. It was simply because there are non-stop interruptions on YM, meetings, discussion, emails, and bugs checking for juniors. Past two days I finally got the chance to try it out again as my boss passed me an urgent project where I could excuse myself for all interruptions. I really feel I am like a superwoman, keep coding non-stop and even enjoyed till my colleagues have to YELL at me. Also at the same time, I managed to solve all juniors’ problems in just few minutes (not that I am smart, just because I experienced the same problems before)
.
It is actually tiring, have to go home late with tired body and dry eyes.Sometimes even continue work at home after bath and dinner. But i still like it deeply because of the self satisfaction. (of course not everyday like this~)
To be honest, being a programmer is really not that easy…..
Non programmer will never understand !!
-why the programmer can look into a page with millions words or logs with black screen
-why the programmer can work non-stop
-what makes the programmer even work on weekend just to solve a non urgent problem
.
All these were because of “self satisfactions” and “challenging” make them keep working.
I really miss the coding days.
I am quit sure my boss will allow me to handle more coding than management work (well at least equally 50-50) since I had highlighted to him.I am sure he will read this too …. ![]()

Am totally agreed with what you said. Well, I am a programmer too, and I love programming, especially when you get the program running!
But then, probably am getting older. Prefer to have 30/70 of programming/management time. Haha..
Programming is cool, but it’s really tired and can make you so exhausted sometimes.
