I don't know from first hand experience but I was reading an article in my class written by a computer programmer about how fustrating computer programming can be and how you will begin to think and talk in code and loose all preception of a real life and instead be working out of a cubical for the rest of your life. It might have been exaggerated, but I get the impression it wasn't a very good job.

Ohh. even i have seen these articles. Is this true. One person replied to this discussion that he really loves his job and there is no problem he has with his family. Now i am in a dilemma as to whom to trust.
