Do You Hate Your Job?

So your tech job obviously sucks since you found your way here. What are you going to do about it?

Don’t be like me. I spent 8 years in a software job working crazy long hours and making some corporate executive bozos a lot of money before I wised up and decided there were better ways to earn a buck. I’m now in the process of transitioning from corporate software drone to self-employed entrepreneur.

Writing software is an art and a science. The creative pleasure you experience while designing and writing code feels almost as good as the satisfaction of seeing your component or system re-used and extended to solve someone’s problem. Unfortunately much of that talent and joy is lost in today’s corporate software factory. Insane deadlines, corporate rules & frameworks, support pagers, constantly changing requirements, and outsourcing are only some of the things that suck the life right out of the modern day developer.

“Get a new job if you don’t like the one you have”, your friends and family say. What they don’t understand is the new job may be different for a while but in the end it will likely have all the same problems as the one you’re in now.

So why slave away making someone else rich in a job you don’t even like anymore? Why not strike out on your own? The Internet is overflowing with potential for creative & technically savvy people like you. Take advantage of it! Make the decision and start earning your own money today!

Does your job suck too? Did you know that you could use your tech savvy to make more money, set your own schedule, work fewer hours, and not have to put up with all that the corporate B.S.?
