Designer: hey, can you add this thing

Me: Sure, but that's probably a day's worth of work

Designer: oh, I thought it was just a line of code

Me: 😑😡🤦‍♂️

Lecturer: Unfortunately, you will have to manually write these 16 combinations in the program.

Me: *writes a script to generate the combinations*

Just had a teacher tell the class how to use block comments...

Some mouthwatering SQL right here

Sometimes I wish my girlfriend was able to write code so we could talk and share our code and thoughts.

Sometimes I thank God she finds it the most boring thing on Earth and we get to talk about other things and decompress.

When the developers are told to implement the given design without questioning whether a design makes sense at all
...

Pretty much 😕

I wish money wasn't so god damn important !

I just want to build cool things 😥

WORST???

Seeing your code, which you were proud about, now being butchered by some interns/newbies 😲

Just like seeing your X girlfriend after long time 😒

Our current project...

First three sprints... going fine and slow get used to each other.
Later sprints get more of a clear scope. With a deadline a couple of months later. The team raises some red flags with problems.
Seems like the PO/PM doesn't get it or ignores it.
More sprints later with more confrontations. PO/PM still doesn't get it.
Team introduces a new theme song

Hopes she gets it now . . .

Worst thing about being a Dev:

Getting forced by a non dev for a timescale without even being allowed to look at the issue. Then being held to that made up deadline!!

Why is there no option to not wear any pants in the avatar builder? Because really, I don't.

A young guy I work with burst into tears today, I had no idea what happened so I tried to comfort him and ask what was up.

It appears his main client had gone nuts with him because they wanted him to make an internet toolbar (think Ask.com) and he politely informed them toolbars doesn't really exist anymore and it wouldn't work on things like modern browsers or mobile devices.

Being given a polite but honest opinion was obviously something the client wasn't used to and knowing the guy was a young and fairly inexperienced, they started throwing very personal insults and asking him exactly what he knows about things (a lot more than them).

So being the big, bold, handsome senior developer I am, I immediately phoned the client back and told them to either come speak to me face-to-face and apologise to him in person or we'd terminate there contract with immediate effect. They're coming down tomorrow...

So part my rant, part a rant on behalf of a young developer who did nothing wrong and was treated like shit, I think we've all been there.

We'll see how this goes! Who the hell wants a toolbar anyway?!

"A different error message! Finally some progress!"

And that was enough encouragement

Who else think this is awesome
