How Normal People Sit On Chair Vs How IT People Sit On Chair

How Normal People Sit On Chair Vs How IT People Sit On Chair
The proper posture is just a myth after your 10th debugging session. That slumped, half-dead position isn't a choice—it's an evolutionary adaptation that occurs after staring at code for 8+ hours. Your spine naturally transforms into question mark shape, perfectly matching the confusion in your code. Ergonomic chairs? Please. We pay $1000 for chairs specifically designed to be sat in incorrectly. It's not laziness, it's just that our bodies instinctively know the optimal angle for spotting that missing semicolon is approximately "melting into furniture."

Terminal Of Mass Destruction

Terminal Of Mass Destruction
Nothing says "I'm definitely a hacker" like opening a terminal with its black background and colorful text in public. I've stopped using terminals at coffee shops because I'm tired of explaining that I'm just checking why my API is returning 500 errors, not launching nukes at North Korea. The best part is when you type ls -la and someone gasps like you just bypassed the Pentagon's firewall. Ten years of software architecture experience and my family still thinks I can fix their Facebook account because "you know computers."

The Terminal Witch Hunt

The Terminal Witch Hunt
Open a terminal in public and suddenly you're the digital equivalent of a witch in Salem. Just trying to check disk space but the crowd's already gathering kindling. Non-tech folks see those colorful command lines and immediately assume you're either hacking the Pentagon or summoning digital demons. The number of times I've had to explain that "sudo apt update" isn't actually breaching national security is frankly exhausting.

I Am Not A Hacker

I Am Not A Hacker
Nothing screams "elite hacker" to non-tech folks like a black terminal with white text. I've literally had people back away nervously when I'm just checking disk space with df -h . It's like showing a calculator to someone in the 1600s—instant witchcraft trial. Ten years writing enterprise software and people still think I'm breaking into the Pentagon when I'm actually just trying to remember the syntax for tar for the 500th time.

Is This Real: The IT Perception Matrix

Is This Real: The IT Perception Matrix
The tech workplace hierarchy decoded in grid form! Each IT role has their own unique perception of colleagues, ranging from admiration to outright hostility. Developers see designers as children, while security views everyone as potential threats. QA's perspective is particularly brutal—seeing developers as headache-inducing and project managers as chaotic mobs. The most accurate row might be the sysadmins, who apparently view security folks as actual traffic cops stopping everything. It's basically a documented proof that we're all silently judging each other while pretending to collaborate. The cross-functional team meeting just got awkwardly real.
