And the fools rushed code is still there a decade later...
You nailed it.
I'm not going to lie, that last one is the hardest thing for me.
After years of trades i always loved having a physical thing you can touch and feel at the end of the day. I'm in university for tech, and i'm still struggling with the lack of achievement. I don't often get to see someone use a thing I worked on, so it kinda feels like I spent a lot of time doing nothing.
It puts food on your table so you don't fucking starve, you little unappreciative shit.
My kid seems to get the connection between my job and our accommodations, but they'd still rather I play with them.
They once introduced me to a teacher by saying "this is my dad. He likes working. And money!"
The (quite young, probably barely in her twenties) teacher considered this for a moment, then said "well... I guess my parents do, too."
You should explain to the little ones that your boss wants a certain amount of work every week, and if he doesn't get it, he'll get mad and won't give you any money at all
Cool it?
