Loathing is a bit of a strong word IMO

But I agree in the sense that working as a developer is very different from coding-for-fun

To me they are very disconnected activities.

At work I don't even write code like 60% of the time.

And even when you write code the interesting bits are the minority of what you take care of. Writing tests, making sure that errors are handled correctly and CRUD take a significant portion of time and they are simply not interesting if you've been doing this for a while.
