I fully understand how you feel at the moment. It's not the case you're a bad programmer. As someone mentioned it could be down to a number of factors. You could be just burnt out and need a break. Alternatively you can always decide to work on something outside of work that can help sharpen your skills. Currently at my place I got moved from doing bug fixes/client work to doing testing. I feel as though my development skills are no longer being put to use and I want to say something but do not know how to. But the best thing I do and recommend you do is try not to let it get you down and keep actively learning.

I do, a lot. It's all garbage, though, and no one really looks at it.

Don't get trapped into work you don't want, but perhaps don't quit your job yet, either. Don't wait. You don't want to be a near-40 year old loser like me before this hits you.

Thanks for the advice.
