10 Years Of Experience And Here's My Update

Ten years in the industry and the only visible progress is a slightly fancier mousepad. Same grumpy expression, same outdated monitor, same existential dread—but hey, at least the desk accessories got a minor RGB upgrade. The real kicker?

Some call it career growth, others call it a slow descent into comfortable misery with better lighting.
