If it's anything like our office, it means your coding abilities will slowly melt the surrounding brain matter until all technical knowledge has drained out your ears. Then, one day, you will tell us to send data in plain text URL parameters and that SSL is too hard, and that the contractors say their sql db TABLE STRUCTURE did not pass security review (how?) and then we will mourn your passing. That's when you are a real manager.

Everything is going as planned
In knew it was bad at the time, but holy shit have I realised how shitty my last job was!
Underpaid (though still not doing too badly), underappreciated, and no promotion or raise despite promises of one for over a year. Of course the minute I handed in my notice, they immediately offered me a 15k raise and "oh, we can get you involved in the management side in 6 months".
Guess what bitches, my new job * is * being a manager, and I get a 20k pay rise. 2 weeks in and I'm loving it, wish I'd switched sooner!
The catch is, I'm now a manager. Does this make me the future bad guy?
