Still here - still coding

There is a question which HR loves to ask when interviewing a candidate : " Where do you see yourself in 5 years?" My answer: " I want to do this stuff even at 80... so the best things are in between" Not always loving HR but seeing the faces when they hear the answer makes me giggle. Also staying sane enough to be doing this job is a job of its own. Not losing your mind when every year there is a manager that wants a fully featured task in 2 weeks even if the whole team estimated it at 2 months, is again a job of its own. Not to mention the rate at which new stuff appears that may or may not be good in the long run - but one still has to learn it 'cause you never know.
