Okay tiger mom. Bartenders don't get fired because they got a cheaper office in Estonia or India to write code. They don't have 9am meetings. Git is an insult you call somebody; What's a JIRA‽ You don't want to work in the nightlife/entertainment industry, which is fine, but it's a $36 billion dollar industry and some people want to do that instead of sitting in front of a screen all day long.

At the end of the day, take home pay is one metric we can actually compare, because different people want different things.
