I have to hand it to programmers.
 

Man I don't know how you guys keep from slaughtering those around you then turning a gun on yourself.


I just finished my first real perl script and DAMN. I almost didnt make it out alive.


Props to people who do this all the time.

YEa the real jesus is a bleach white hippie. Get a clue moron.

I'm the king of the fucking jews.

Before the dot.bomb they just plain hired you to do a job and would
wait for you to contact them and tell them it's ready.

After the dot.bomb, and all the kiddies were offering services for less
than minimum wage, clients want a friggin' play-by-play as your going.
They don't want to pay anything for it and the keep using the word
"just" a lot.

Like "I just want the sales people to get all the current listings" and you
say "Then you need to incorporate a database and that is going to
be an entirely different cost than the agreement we have already started".
Then they say "I don't want a database then I just want the sales people
to see the old listings and the new listings as they come up".

So it's not the code that's a bitch it's the clients. 1 out of 10 are normal
but the rest treat you like your scamming them or something.

If they say "just" then you tell them you "just" remembered your booked
for the next millennium and to call back when the sun goes nova.

Heh.... well I will only do code for meyself, but Yes I totally understand what you mean. Thats part of the reason I got out of the webhosting biz before i was in too deep. Customers who want more for less. Pricewars can really fuck with an industry.

Yeah get that sometime they say one thing then once u almost done they mention something that will require to change everything around...

Yeah fuck coding for the man, all the stuff people are saying about it is true. Just code for yourself and get all money with none of the bullshit...

The thing is they can change anything they want as long as I get paid for
all my keystrokes I don't give a shit if they change it every five minutes.
The problem is most don't want to pay for the work you already did
before they changed their minds.

I watch a show on T.V. I don't know the name of it but it's one of those
house improvement shows and a guy named Jim (really likable fella)
gets in the same shit with his clients. They blueprint a design and the owners
approve then the owners want changes and Jim and his Irish #1 man always
get pissed because the client doesn't want to pay for the changes and they
can't get it in their head why "extra items" cost "extra money.

House builders and programmers have the same attitude clients.
