I no longer build software; I now make furniture out of wood.

    When I was studying computer science I worked couple of summer at a construction site in the USA (illegally, like a good polish boy). It was not nice. It was really boring. I don’t know about other people but I like programming because it’s a creative process. Solving problems is fun. In physical jobs there’s just to much time to think. And yes, programming can also be boring and some physical jobs really creative but in most cases programming is way more creative. If you’re programing job is as tedious as laying bricks change jobs.
