Friend: are all developers single?
Me: of course not
Friend: you sure?
Me: yep

Friend: what?
Me: nah im just joking, when i find the girl that can understand my code i know she's the one.
Friend: I hope theres someone that can understand that.43 -

I opened a tutorial in youtube about web development , suddenly enter wix add
"You need a website why not do it yourself"
Me: no shit thats my job to work on a website but not on wix3 -

Manager: we have reached record sales this month, thank you for your hard work guys.
Employee: can I get a raise?
Manager: your greed is hurting the company.
Employee: but I worked here for 3 years8 -
It's a pain in the ass that you are given a really short deadline with a huge system scope, i think the clients think that i just throw some pixie dust to my pc then it magically code it self.8
-
I just realize that companies dont value a good developer, they just want a developer that can do the job done for clients to get money, i understand that just recently and im sad that some people are just in it for the money not for the love of the craft and technology.8
-
People now a days dont understand the value of creativity , being a developer means your creativity is also your productivity its your means to keep your job ,pay rent , buy clothes and have something to eat, its just sad to see people demoralize developers for "charging so much" to a project that people think is easy to do. We developers provide outputs and our creativity to the world, i think we deserve more than just a salary, but also a thank you for adding something to the world.3

Got stucked in a problem with recursion in php, almost 2 days no sign of progress until i told my co worker how my code works, then i found the error and it work. I think developers need to talk about the code to realize whats wrong with the code.9
-
After realizing that I am burnout from working, I soon realize that you should not go above and beyond when working, they will always expect you to work like that and be disappointed if you did a minor mistake.3
-
I just remembered a weird fix in a bug, some old developer hide the error message using css, placing it in a div then just used display none. LOL4
-
CTO for the picture.

Job descriptions are only accurate for about a few months after that its the wild west whatever they want you to do.5

I was think of using ajax to pass data from javascript to php because of some validation to my multiple checkbox, then before i go home the idea hit me to just use validation in php with some basic variable manipulation and if else, i just wasted 2 hours of searching just to arrived at a basic solution, i think it's much better to think before you code about what you want to do,but when i open my text editor i get distracted a lot.11
-
I really loving coding but i cant stand people that take coding for granted, theres no single way to code there are a lot of ways to make a single function work and you can code it in different ways, i hate it when people dont use their imagination, in coding you dictate what you want to do, thats the power of coding1
-
Pulled an all nighter for a project, the next thing i know i am demonstrating my code with the error message i forgot to change which was houston we got a problem, i felt so weird and i was laughing very hard after the project presentation
-
Some people think that web development is easy because they use framework for responsive designs, they dont know the struggle of manually using media query in css.
-
I always find it frustrating that additional requirements and changes are added and the deadline is not extended2
-
Documentation for all our projects within a few hours is really impossible, thank you project manager.3
-
This day sucks, i cant even code or learn on any tutorial ,my brain just wants to know who will sit on the iron throne.3
-
I visited my college school today and my friends from lower years are still afraid of coding , i mean coding doesnt bite it just take time to understand , i think people want the easy way of understanding things rather than building up from nothing, thats why i love to code because i can literally make something out of nothing.4
-
Apparently management can't keep track of the conflicting revisions and task they keep assigning to their devs.
-
Current companies says that developers has a lot of time to code but in reality we dont, we are not given the right time to develop certain features.1
-
I don't understand why managers are not held responsible for the under estimated timeline of the project, the developer will suffer from the overtime and crunch of coding.3

I'm doing work during the weekend. Just to parse this line of json.
Argh, what drive me nuts is after discovering that json response wasn't proper.
*sample - from what i seen*
{
head= {
data=value,
data=value,
}
}
This is my first time seeing json response with =. Since my assignment is to retrieve the response.
I cheated by calling replace over and over to correct the string of response to correct json format.
That is actually production stuff. Knowing that makes me sick to the stomach.7 -
I stumble upon stacy's mom on youtube ,while adding a feature in a website for a client i unconsciously sang stacy's mom in the office, goodthing it was just my co workers that heared, now they tease me that the client that i'm fixing the bug was for stacy's mom2

Want to ask on how you guys overcame your burnout from coding, i think its been so long since i really got into coding like i used to before.13
-
Don't burn out your self guys, if your burnout take a leave if possible if it's too stressful consider a job switch, money is great but life should also be enjoyed, you can't enjoy your money when your old and having medical problems.
Note: image is from a show I watched on netflix (uncanny counter)

I recently got a job as a web developer, they want me to add a feature in a particular website, i wasnt able to finish it so i decide to bring it at home , but i didnt even wrote a single line of code, i think im lacking motivation or just a deadline

My short story about my interview today.
Hr: we have some repetitive work and deploys project very long.
My inner voice: why u post about having this kinds of skill if you want to just post in wordpress and also have a lot of requirement if you only edit and add post to wordpress, you should not hire a php developer you need a content uploader or some other thing.
Me: i think this job doesnt fit me. -
I am really frustrated and angry when my friends only think that web development is easy you just do everything in bootstrap thats it, but really not all web apps are made in bootstrap, i make mine using css media query and thats hard to set everything manually, im so pissed that they take my job for granted and they cant even right a single decent php function , ignorant retards4

Job hunting again is so fucking hard, they should tell you right away if you did not pass , instead of keep your hopes up. I can take the rejection but the anticipation for nothing really hurts.2

Im thankful that i have work despite the epidemic and all, but work is really just too much for me, recently too much work is given and i need to squeeze in 2days of work in one work day. It can really impact your thinking. It also makes me feel less incontrol of my life.
