I enjoy writing software, but…

I’m sick of making yet another fucking CRM.

I’m sick of trying to keep data synced between seven different third-party services.

I’m sick of trying to pull everything in the database into a single fucking dashboard.

I’m sick of trying to stay within a budget that’s based on some wild-ass guesstimates made by someone who quit over a year ago.

I’m sick of creating things that will only ever be seen by a couple people in some random companies, and will be enjoyed by nobody.

      Oh god I hate that.

      My last interview, I was tasked with writing 5 different sets of code in Python to accomplish 5 different tasks.

      With a pencil, on paper. That was a first for me.

      My issue: I will always refer to documentation, just to make sure I don’t make mistakes. So, my brain froze trying to remember certain calls.
