Senior Vs Principal: The Great Developer Betrayal

THE CAREER EVOLUTION NOBODY WARNED YOU ABOUT! 😱

Senior developer surrounded by cool IDEs and Git? LIVING THE DREAM with IntelliJ, VS Code, and Sublime! Look at that SMILE! That's the face of someone who hasn't seen a spreadsheet in YEARS!

Then you get promoted to Principal and BOOM! Your life is now an endless hellscape of Jira, Excel, and Microsoft Teams meetings! That's not a frown—that's the facial expression of someone who hasn't written actual code since Obama was president! 💀

They never tell you the truth in those career progression meetings: more money = less code, more meetings. The ultimate tech career betrayal!

One Of These Is Not Like The Others

Spot the rebel! While every good programmer follows the sacred tradition of creating a "Hello World" as their first program, someone decided to go full chaotic evil with wazzup.php . It's like showing up to a formal wedding in a Hawaiian shirt and flip-flops. The rest are all variations of the programmer's initiation ritual across different languages—from the classic C/C++ to the more exotic Lisp, Forth, BASIC, and even Zig. But that PHP dev just had to be different. Probably the same person who uses tabs instead of spaces and puts the opening brace on a new line.
