Worst things about being a dev? Boy, this will be a long one!
- Whatever I do, be it hard work or smart work, I feel I am always underpaid.

- Most people who don't know tech feel my job shouldn't take that long. "Oh, a website that should be easy." "Oh, REST services, that's cute!"

- Most people who know a little tech will be like, "Here is the code for this on Google, then why are you charging this much"

- Companies like Microsoft and Apple who are too cool to follow standards.

- Always underpaid!

- The friggin compilers and random environment vars. Sometimes you make no change and the code works on a restart. I mean wtf!

- Having to give/meet deadlines, when we know most of the times things get out of control.

- Having to work for jerks mostly who don't know squat, and can't tell the difference between a CPU and a Wooden box.

- Sometimes I wanna take a break from my laptop(traveling and stuff) , those are the times I get the maximum work load!

- Did I mention we are always underpaid?

- Because of the kind of work I do, finding a girl has been challenging. Where the heck are they!

- We have to stay always updated. Often we deploy something using a framework and the next day we see an update.

- Speaking of updates, I hate having to support for OSes like Microsoft.

- Speaking of OSes, I hate Apple!

- Speaking of Apple, I feel we are underpaid, de javu?
...
How much would you hate me if I wrote "just kidding" ?

    @KnightsOfCode I agree many devs like macs, obviously linux is much better. But, my hatred is purely a personal preference. I feel they overcharge wayyyy too much, and I don't like that!

    @SuperNOVA As someone who likewise HATES windows... Didn't Windows 10 go to most people for free?

    VSCode is free.

    Skype is free (though frankly they'd have a hard time charging the average home user now anyway).

    Unless you mean it wasn't free as in libre, in which case that's fair enough!

    @nmunro Don't hate windows of the cost, actually I am just not a fan of their update policy, don't hate them like I hate Apple.
