Old Tech Was Different

That moment when your dream job turns into a nightmare in just one word. The recruiter had us in the first half with "high paying, remote job" and "latest version of Java" - sounding like developer heaven. Then BAM! Plot twist: "...script." The facial journey from pure joy to absolute horror is basically every developer who's been catfished by a job description. Nothing kills enthusiasm faster than discovering your elegant Java code dreams are actually JavaScript reality. It's like ordering a Ferrari online and getting a cardboard cutout with "vroom vroom" written on it.

Efficiency at its finest!
