The emotional journey of a developer in four stages of despair: 1. Coding: "Yeah, I got this!" - Blissfully ignorant, thinking your code will work on the first try. 2. Debugging: "Wait, why is this happening?" - The slow realization that your beautiful code is actually a dumpster fire with a syntax error cherry on top. 3. Version Control: "WHO COMMITTED THIS MONSTROSITY?" - That moment you git blame only to discover it was you, three months ago. 4. DevOps: "I've seen things you people wouldn't believe..." - The thousand-yard stare of someone who's had to fix a production server at 2 AM while the CEO watches their Slack status.
