Do you work in a particularly mathematical field?

I've been working in tech for 15 years now, and can't remember any time that I've needed to use imaginary numbers. The only reason I still remember anything about them is because my hobby is electronics.

I have to agree. I love imaginary numbers, the complex exponential, both the s-plane and the z-plane. Because, like yours, my hobby is electronics.

Neither as a low level system programmer, nor in any of my high level programming jobs a long long time ago, have I ever needed imaginary numbers. Privately yes, but that's just when writing code for my hobby.

I ise imaginary numbers every day as a developer!

That number 15 turns out to be very imaginary most of the time :(
