I remember a time when people in this field were in this field because they wanted to be in this field. They wanted to do a good job. They learned on their own time, and practiced on their own time. They brought those skills into their employer and used those skills to make things better.
Now we have people who view IT as a route to management, and nothing more. They do shit work. They do a lot of it. They don't care.
I long for the time I remember when people actually cared. I feel like I'm one of the remaining sane people in the world.
