But thanks to my university degree, I'm now in a position to write those annoying bugs which I'll then get paid to fix later.

Job security.

But it's the degree that gets me quadruple the pay.

I have no degree and earn better than ever...
Not one client ever asked for my degree either.

No degree here either.
Still a senior rails dev.

And yes, it's the bugs that keep me employed, at least here. It was the features at my previous job. I miss that place.

This rant has some timing. I just did 20 hotfixes on a project...

@jdebs @Maer If the software was perfect without bugs, you wouldn't have the chance at all, because there wouldn't have been a work position in first place

@funvengeance Are you aware that software needs to be written, not merely fixed? *shrug*

@Maer yes but also are you aware that in legacy clearcase projects there is a job position for people just doing the equivalent of git pull, git commit etc.
