Life from the perspective of a Software Engineer



Life from the perspective of a Software Engineer:



I have been in the field of Software for the past 7 years and though I still don’t know a squat I still call myself one. That is the beauty of this field. If you don’t believe me ask the web developers a.k.a Software engineers ;). Need more proof check out my website (…).


I have recently observed   that we YES WE (that Includes me!!) as a software engineer end up relating things to our work with things happening in our life (yes we do have a life!!!). 

We have accepted the fact that no matter how successful we are in life we will always be tested by people whose sole purpose is to find fault in your work. 


 



-We spend whole nights googling (yeah we don’t think or ponder over matters we Google) on why people like Farmville are preferred over World of Warcraft.

- We as software engineers understand the effort that has gone into building one and don’t mind paying for it but it’s always better if you get it for free.
As the saying goes "Software is like sex; free is always better"

-In our life we always meet people like Steve Jobs whom we admire but still end up preferring people like Bill Gates.
- For us HOPE is like a GUI, a Viagra which turns you on but as always and I mean always end up using the command prompt. (You should be getting the wrong idea)

- The only way we know how to deal with problems is to use ctrl+Alt+Del.


- For us life is an infinite loop which in which the break statements never gets executed.
- How much ever we try to be object oriented in our life we always end up referring to some pointers.
-We all have firefoxes and chrome’s in our life whom we love we always have to take care of the explorer’ too.



- We always have friends like windows whom you hate but still call them up because you are bored and all the Macs are busy.



Just added this picture because I found it funny no other reason whatsoever.
And as I always leave with a message
