1. Identify the problem
2. Come up with a clever solution
3. Refactor half of your code
4. Watch it fail horribly because you're such an idiot it's a bloody miracle you keep breathing on your own
5. Repeat2 -
When Support burst into your office to find 4 devs standing in front of a whiteboard with frustrated faces.

-"Would you like me to include the phrase 'this was really fucking complex' in the release documentation?"
Sometimes I think my boss is against coding :/ -
If your relative's computer doesn't have a TeamViewer (or similar) client running 24/7, you're a failure and deserve to have your rant privileges revoked.8

That co-worker who keeps complaining about trivial stuff like his IDE not being configured exactly the way he likes it but makes zero efforts to fix the fucking problem 😡1
