Banking Experience
Banking IT is where bureaucracy goes to die... slowly... over the course of several months while you wait for access permissions. This beautifully captures the Kafkaesque nightmare of working in financial institutions where you spend 3 months just getting set up, another month actually coding, and then watch your release fail because someone sneezed during deployment. The real kicker? Step 16 creates an infinite loop back to step 8, meaning you're basically stuck in development purgatory forever. And that casual "I'll explain how hotfixes are done later!" at the end? Chef's kiss. Because if the regular release process is THIS painful, imagine trying to push an emergency fix. You'd probably need to schedule a meeting to schedule a meeting to request permission to think about scheduling the hotfix. Fun fact: Banks run on systems so old that COBOL programmers are being pulled out of retirement. The red tape isn't a bug, it's a feature designed to make sure nothing ever changes too quickly. Because when you're handling people's money, apparently the solution is to make everything move at the speed of continental drift.

Most Dreaded Language
VBA really said "hold my deprecated functions" and became the language that makes developers physically recoil in horror. Like, imagine being SO universally despised that even when people see you sleeping peacefully, they're still traumatized. That's VBA energy right there – the language that haunts Excel macros and corporate nightmares everywhere. It's basically the coding equivalent of finding out your "quick automation task" requires you to write in a language that peaked in the 90s and refuses to die. The absolute AUDACITY of VBA to still be relevant in 2024 while looking like it crawled out of a time capsule filled with Windows 95 CDs!

The contrast here is absolutely brutal. Regular programmers get to proudly tell their past selves about their cool modern language, getting that sweet validation. Meanwhile, ABAP programmers? They're being hunted down by the Terminator himself. For context: ABAP (Advanced Business Application Programming) is SAP's proprietary language from the 1980s, still heavily used in enterprise resource planning systems. It's verbose, quirky, and let's just say it hasn't aged like fine wine. More like milk left out in the sun. The joke cuts deep because ABAP devs are stuck maintaining legacy systems that corporations refuse to modernize because "it works" and migration costs are astronomical. So while everyone else is playing with React hooks and Rust async, ABAP programmers are writing DATA: lt_table TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF... you get the idea. Walther Abap didn't invent ABAP (that was actually SAP founders), but the personification of their collective suffering into one target for time-traveling rage? Chef's kiss. 💀

That classic dilemma: maintain job security by implementing the company's terrible ideas or end it all to spare yourself the shame of what you're creating. Nothing says "professional growth" quite like building integrations nobody asked for that actively make the product worse. The real tragedy? You'll still have to maintain that garbage code for the next five years while management calls it "innovative." Bonus points if they add it to your performance review as a "key achievement."

Ah, the classic developer transformation pipeline! You start as a bright-eyed engineer with dreams of changing the world through code, then Jira happens. Nothing sucks the soul out of a developer faster than watching your creative aspirations dissolve into an endless backlog of tickets, story points, and sprint planning meetings. That resume snippet in the middle is the smoking gun - "worked with 10-person Scrum team in Agile environment" might as well read "slowly had my will to live drained through two-week increments." The transformation from happy human to murderous CEO is just *chef's kiss* accurate. Your manager keeps saying "it's just a tool to help us organize" but we all know it's actually a portal to the ninth circle of developer hell.
