>get a programming/system architect job out of college
>spend my time learning about software architecture and software design
>spend around a day learning new languages when a project needs them
>know algorithms well but don't have pseudocode memorized
>start looking for new positions
>all "senior" level programmers care about is how much of the C++ manual you can recall with perfect precision
>demand that you can code on a whiteboard even though that never happens
>never discuss things like design
why the fuck is the software field so autistic?
