Graphs are fun, CHARTS are boring.

Haha, that's a more accurate assessment!
OP, it's so hard to know what a job is like from a tiny second hand description, so don't take my words too literally, it might be fine and more involved, but as someone else said in the thread:
there is a possibility of getting a bit more into
Is code for:
we're going to dangle this thing in front of you for a year or two and then conveniently forget we ever said it
That's the very antithesis of hardcore programming. Apart from tearing your hair out at the shitty kendo API designs.
The security job sounds like a boring job to me from his description, sounds like they'd be using him to animate a bunch of graphs on their website or something.
OP, there's almost nothing worse in programming than making graphs.
