This essay was on Reddit today and I found it very amusing.

Excerpt:

“Ambition to succeed in a glamour profession is not something to be deplored, but a young person must receive advice and support on what to do if she is not the 1 in 10,000 who succeeds. If Tiffany wants to become a professional singer, I would not try to dissuade her, but I would really like for her to pursue a CS degree part time while she tries to advance her singing career.”

I have had a few jobs. Programming is the best. My current programming gig is the best of the best. I’ve got climate control and a comfy chair and I typey type type and I’ve got time to do my drawing on the side and even a little bloggin’.

RECOMMEND.
