The modern developer's immunity to recruiter spam has reached legendary status. After years of "Hi {first_name}" messages and "exciting opportunities" that pay in exposure and free snacks, we've evolved strict filtering criteria. Six figures? Remote work? No agile ceremonies where I pretend to care about story points? Suddenly the recruiter has our attention. It's not that we're difficult—we've just been burned enough times to know exactly what we want. That awkward silence when the recruiter realizes they can't offer any of those things? Priceless. Almost as valuable as the 4 hours of my life I'll never get back from that "quick technical chat" that turned into implementing a binary tree from scratch.

The CS student who's discovered that mentioning "MONEY" 12 times in one post is somehow a personality trait. Classic case of someone who picked Computer Science solely for the salary but hasn't yet realized they'll need to actually write code for 40 years to earn it. The real flex will be when they discover their first debugging session lasts longer than their entire college career. Nothing says "future tech lead material" like someone who thinks they'll waltz into a $200k job without caring about the actual work. Spoiler alert: the people making that kind of money actually enjoy solving problems beyond "how to get more money."

Let's be honest—we're all one bad sprint from quitting and opening a food truck. The golden handcuffs of tech salaries keep us debugging other people's spaghetti code at 2 AM instead of pursuing our actual dreams. Sure, I could make artisanal cupcakes for a living, but how would I afford my collection of unused Udemy courses and mechanical keyboards? The real programmer dream isn't building the next unicorn—it's finding any other job that pays six figures for turning caffeine into semicolons.

Atleast It Pays More
Front-end development: peaceful meadows, sunshine, and playing with cute dinosaurs. Meanwhile, back-end developers are literally fighting for their lives in a post-apocalyptic hellscape where everything is on fire and mutant babies are trying to eat your face. But hey, the crushing existential dread comes with a higher salary, so there's that! The perfect visualization of why back-end devs always look like they've seen things no human should witness. "It's fine, everything's fine" they whisper, as another server crashes at 3am.
