It really seems to me that in general programmers have such an good life that they (we) have to find something to complain about. I'm not pointing any fingers, since I often have the same thoughts. There was actually a quite nice article on HN lately (I read it on Sunday, but my google-fu is failing me), something along the likes of "Why wouldn't you want to be a programmer?", which arrived to the same conclusion as I usually do after trying to compare it to many other professions in an unbiased way: overall programming is quite a sweet deal.

I have to admit though that I never held any other jobs, so I'm very interested in reading about the opinions of those that have.
