Family it Memes

Being a software developer doesn't automatically make you the family IT support person, but try explaining that to your relatives. You spent years mastering algorithms, data structures, and distributed systems. You can architect a microservices backend that handles millions of requests per second. But printer drivers? That's a completely different circle of hell that no amount of LeetCode will prepare you for. The real kicker is that you probably do know how to set up the printer—you just learned it through sheer survival instinct after the 47th time someone asked. But that knowledge came from googling error codes and reinstalling drivers, not from your CS degree. Your job title says "Senior Full Stack Engineer." Your family sees "Guy Who Fixes Things With Buttons."
