[aperture]

Love the article. I'm a university student, bored with the lab and into coding SSRS reports as a job. Luckily, I enjoy my work, constantly fighting the SQL queries and arranging the datasets in ever complex fashions the client needs, or decide they want to change drastically.

I found though that my enjoyment in code is I like the challenges I face, not how I got there. I have tools in front of me, that may be good or may be bad, but it doesn't matter. Using these tools, learning some tricks, or asking (even helping) others is what I find enjoyable. I enjoy the code because I challenge myself. A client will give me a new task, but ultimately it's me who has accepted it. Make the best of it.
