Summary: Aaron didn't hate programming so much as he hated management.
Warnings: none.
Notes: Aaron's actual degree (the first one, anyway) is in computer science. FIVE OCTARINE LEFT.
Aaron didn't mind being a programmer, exactly; it could be boring and repetitive, with moments of extreme frustration, but he'd known that going in. What he did mind, and he minded it with extreme prejudice, was the management.
Management had never been programmers in their lives, or if they had it was so long ago that none of their experience was still relevant. Management wanted things tomorrow when they should take a week. Management wanted quantity over quality but demanded quality too. Management could code this goddamn log in page themselves for all Aaron cared.
He quit six months in.
