Welcome to Programmer Humor!
This is a place where you can post jokes, memes, humor, etc. related to programming!
For sharing awful code theres also Programming Horror.
I once asked some of my friends what they were up to at work.
An accountant friend said "I'm making a VBA macro to restructure and convert our customer's XML data into an SQL transaction so that we can import it into our accounting system".
A car mechanic friend said: "I'm trying to find the specsheet for this obscure ECU so that I can flash in this profile that I've tweaked with hex editor"
A teacher friend said: "I'm setting up integration between moodle and shopify so that we wouldn't have to enroll our students manually".
And every time my response was "YOU WHAT NOW? You should work in IT"
And they always responded with something along the lines of "Yeah, nah, I'm not that smart"
And here I am, slapping webpages and forms together, earning more than all of them combined. That's really unfair, but I'm not in a position to complain.
