How About You Just Fire Me Then

When your inner monologue goes from "I don't know what I'm doing" to "Wait, what if I actually don't know what I'm doing?" That's not imposter syndrome anymore—that's your brain executing a recursive self-doubt function with no base case! It's like when you've been faking your way through a codebase for so long that you start wondering if Stack Overflow should charge you rent. The shower thoughts hit different when you realize you've been copying and pasting for three years and still can't explain how that one function works.

Users Find A Way

No matter how intuitive you think your UI is, users will find a way to break your assumptions. You spend weeks perfecting that dropdown menu, adding tooltips, and even including a literal "Click Here" button... then some genius comes along and manages to wedge a traffic barrier through their truck window instead. The eternal struggle of UX design isn't building interfaces—it's predicting the creative ways humans will misinterpret them. If you've ever watched a user test and quietly whispered "how is this even possible?" under your breath, you've lived this nightmare firsthand.

Side Project

That crushing moment when you've spent 3 months building your revolutionary microservice architecture with cutting-edge tech stack, only for your friend to glance at it and say "cool" before asking if you've seen the latest Netflix show. The emotional damage is immeasurable. Your creation—your child —dismissed with the same enthusiasm people reserve for mediocre sandwich choices. Next time I'll just say I've been "watching TV" instead of "rewriting my entire app in Rust because JavaScript hurt my feelings."
