“A career in software is one of the most pampered and lucrative ones I can think of.”

Yeah, when you are in the top 5%. I’m not sure you realize just how shit most tech jobs are. Not everyone gets $300k a year in stock. Most people get nothing.

You don’t want it because you are in the top decile. That’s the same reason that everyone who is in the top decile of anything doesn’t want change. This is for the 90%, not for you. You shouldn’t empathize. You should oppose this because it will ultimately hurt you.
