A comment on The Mid-Career Crisis of the Perl Programmer.

I've been programming for over 7 years now. Learning this and switching to that. I've grown very tired of it... very tired.

With a bakery you'd at least have someone complement your hard work... and maybe come back in the next day for more.

Programming has no rewards... other than the "lighting" instances. You spend your life in front of a monitor... typing. Yet, we all need money right?

Only 7 years and you're tired already? Maybe it's not the job for you?

7 years is a long time, no matter which way you cut it. Nobody likes a contrarian.
