Workplace evolution Memes

The evolution of software engineering confidence is a beautiful disaster. First week: "I have no idea what I'm doing" (classic imposter syndrome). After a year: "They have no idea what they're doing" (realizing the codebase is held together by duct tape and prayers). By year five: "We have no idea what we're doing" (achieving enlightenment - the entire industry is just sophisticated guesswork running in production). The sacred journey from self-doubt to collective confusion. It's not a bug, it's a feature of our profession!
