There is also a huge portion of programmers who want to be on an assembly line. They don't care about their profession, they don't strive to improve at their craft, they don't read stuff on HN. They're simply there for the money. Since quality requires active effort in software, I think this group has an oversized responsibility for tech debt.

Case in point: frontend and the shit show that's become.

The real part about front end being garbage that pissing me off is that people I have to speak on the phone with go on to patronize me about how “you know you can just use the online form, right?”

I COULD use the online form if the fucking thing ever worked!

Most recently was unable to book service for my vehicle online cause the selection lists always cleared themselves the moment I selected something. I click the year of my vehicle. It populates for an instant. Then clears.

Then had a guy on the phone audibly upset at me for making him take the phone call to book service.
