OH. MY. GOD. After 22 YEARS of coding nightmares at Microsoft, this absolute LEGEND just said "โ๏ธ I'm out" and became a BONSAI FARMER! ๐ Imagine spending two decades optimizing Azure performance, wrestling with .NET Native, and debugging printer drivers (the 9th circle of developer hell), only to wake up one day and decide: "You know what? I'm going to shape tiny trees for a living." The career progression is SENDING ME: Principal Software Engineer โ Goose Farmer โ Bonsai Farmer. This is the tech industry's equivalent of a mic drop so hard it broke through the earth's crust. Honestly? ICONIC. ๐
