Why is going to an office everyday or worst yet a cubicle and

Why is sitting in a chair all day staring at a screen the way you spend all your free time? Is this the life you want?

>>52958038
Better than dealing with people all day everyday honestly and the work is relatively easy and stress free. I won't complain.

Honestly though, it's not just software development, it's practically everything that isn't manual labor or social sciences. Anything STEM will have you using a computer most of the time nowadays.

>>52958038
It pays good and I'm literally too stupid to do anything else.

>>52958180
Exactly fuck people

>>52958038
Every job that doesn't involve backbreaking labor will have you sitting in front of a computer for most of the day.

Why are you complaining about this now?
Why not 30 years ago?

>>52958038
>I have never worked a real programming job
It involves a fuck-ton of talking because without proper communication teams fall apart and projects fail

If you're only concerned with implementation/writing code then congratulations, you're a code monkey

I just want to be accepted in the field of programming, I don't want to rot in a cubicle.
Its a science, afterall.
>>52958401
Was a leader of a run away project once.
Never again. Fuck that shit. I am not touching impossible shitty projects again.

>>52958038
It's better than spending all day under the sun working construction, that's for sure

>>52958180
thirded. I just don't want to deal with other people.

>butthurt wannabe programmer detected.

>>52958574


You don't want to at least be around some ass? Move around a little bit.

>>52958580
That doesn't even make any sense, how am I butthurt or a wannabe?

>>52958269
Networking is STEM but still requires movement does it not? Playing with different hardware. Troubleshooting AP's.

>>52958180
>>52958303
>>52958574
Modern software engineering almost always involves a team of some kind
you're gonna have to deal with people whether you want it or not

the myth that all programmers are some greasy basement dwellers is outdated

>>52958632
Your comparing the enjoyment of programming to the enjoyment of shitposting and watching porn?

>>52958038
Money. Stay poor poorfag.

>>52958632
*You're

>>52958698
Stay shallow, shallow fag.

>>52958668
Exactly. What are you people talking about?
Infact, where do I find a job that enables me to be a greasy basement dweller? I would kill for it.

>>52958686
Yeah, because OP explicitly stated that programming was only staring at a screen, while obviously there's more to it just like how there's more to wasting time on the computer.

>>52958616
>>52958668
>>52958723
I'm mildly autistic so the monotony of programming doesn't bother me, and I can handle small amounts of interaction with people without getting stressed out.

>>52958698
I implore anyone here to change my mind about the monotony of Programming. I took two semesters of Programming in Java, Im not just talking out of my ass.

>>52958180
enjoy getting thrown into an AGILE ENVIRONMENT SCRUM ALL DAY EVERY DAY DAILY MEETING RATE YOUR USER STORY TALK TO ME ANON MY NAME IS FAG AND I NEED TO WRITE THE SPECS

>>52958616
>software development
>around some ass
gay spotted

>>52958038
Because programming was my hobby and now getting paid for it is fucking amazing

Most people in the world hate their jobs so if you're like me, you're one of the few lucky ones
I like programming enough to still work on personal projects on the weekends

>>52958743
I think all of us here are on the spectrum ago some extent. I seen some bitch on the train today looking at a video of her and her boyfriend poking their tongues out of their mouths and making silly faces presumably to post on instagram. Literally wanted to smash her phone and punch her in the nose. I take pleasure in focusing on problems for long periods of time as well. Just didn't like programming.

>>52958038
I like making things.
And I get a lot of freedom to choose what to make and when, without any nagging managers.

When I hear my (non-software developer) friends talk about their office work experiences I am so glad I picked this direction.

>>52958731
Well tell me what the "more" is Anon? make OP a believer.

>>52958743
*to some extent

>>52958752
>Java

>Is this the life you want?
No

>>52958848
but java is basically the easiest language

>>52958866
Is this an objective opinion or something?

>>52958885
making money doing easy things is pretty fun

what is there to complain about?

>>52958769
Allow me to clarify. Pic related. You wouldn't want to work with this?

>>52958786
Im not mad at that. If you enjoy it then great. To each his own.

>>52958920
Will she bully me in to doing work for her using her tits as a bargaining chip?
I mean no, thanks?

>I don't want to rot in a cubicle.

Cubicles are illegal in my country.
And they are more for employees who need to use the phone a lot.

A modern office is very open.

Don't ever apply for a job with a company that still has cubicles.

>>52958812
How do you feel about Database Management? Although not much different from programming. A lot of CLI.

>>52958866
Do you have experience with it? Or are you just talking?

>>52958920
there's about (1 / MILLION) chance of having a coworker like that in anything software related.

also, no, I wouldn't.

>>52958848
You're telling me Python would change my opinion?

>>52959000
yes it's what i'm currently working with 90% of the time and I think it's a breeze

it's literally a dumbed down C++

>>52959001
If you work at Accenture the floors are full of chads bitches

>>52958965
Would that be so bad?

>>52959001
Thats my point. If you weren't writing code all day and maybe moving around a little more maybe her ass would brush up against you in the hallway.

>>52959001

Heres a scenario. You're a network admin wearing more than one hat at the company you work for and she's having a problem locating her files or getting her system to start and while you're sitting at her desk troubleshooting she's leaning over your shoulder purposely rubbing those tits all over your back and neck…..shall I go on?

>>52958333
Doesn't mean you're writing tedious code at said computer.

>>52958556
This is true.

>>52959170
Well again, she wants something.
After you give her what she wants (the files) she'll just walk away and file a sexual assault complaint.

>>52959233
Or maybe you eventually arrange a date with her and blow a load on her chest. Don't be so beta.

It feels good not being a softwareonly baby.

>he thinks software development is anti-social
top kek

>>52958269
What? I'm a consultant [think technical sales consulting] and I do public speaking for the tech company I work for. How is that manual labor or a social science?
