As a game planner, the people I deal with the most every day are programmers.
Programmers earn a salary of 30,000 to 50,000 yuan, but they exude a unique and honest temperament, which is completely different from planning and art.
When a programmer is mixed in the crowd, his rich, low-key, professional, and simple aura will soon reveal himself.
Let me put it bluntly first:
Programmers make a lot of money, but they dress casually.
Freshly graduated programmers often wear plaid shirts, which are divided into red plaid and blue plaid. They are probably influenced by the science and engineering university, and this kind of straight man's atmosphere hits their faces.
Programmers who have been working for several years are different. They often upgrade to red, blue, and yellow jackets, and they vaguely think they are SF Express or takeaway guys.
Old programmers prefer Uniqlo, which is cold-tempered and colorful. Wearing slippers on the seat, crossing one's legs and exposing hairy legs when going through the plan, it looks like a homely person, whatever makes you feel comfortable.
The company is my home, and the environment depends on everyone. This is the embodiment of the realm of young programmers. Less youthful and more Buddhist.
Standing among the crowd wearing fast-selling brands such as ZARA and H&M, the professional aura brought by the programmers' unique clothes immediately stood out.
Looking at game planners, their income is less than half of others. At the bottom of the food chain, they imitate others to make money, perm their hair to flirt with girls, browse Taobao's popular products, and punish themselves every day. In essence, they are hidden poor.
Also:
Programmers who are so rich usually have two cars, one ofo and one Mobike.
Once I took the elevator, the front-end program that came down with me asked me: Where do you live? Is it inconvenient to go back? Why don't you come with me?
I thought, after all, he is a programmer, and I am very happy to let me use the car.
As soon as I went out, I bought a small yellow car. He was carrying a black computer bag, stepped hard on his AJ sneakers, rode a Mobike, put on his headphones, and disappeared happily into the night.
Cycling not only exercises the body but also relaxes the mind. You can also listen to Yizhongtian’s taste of the Three Kingdoms on the way. The programmer expressed his satisfaction.
Of course, if you really want to buy a car, it is unambiguous. Among the newcomers who entered the factory at the same time, all the programmers have bought cars, and the planners are still crowded in the subway.
Then it’s time to eat:
I usually never go out if I can handle it in the cafeteria. Two dishes cost twelve yuan.
I'm tired of writing code, and I finally debugged and solved the bug. Then I need to have a good meal.
Eating is something that programmers are particularly particular about. If I can’t get enough of Japanese and Thai food, I have to go to Gelianghao Barbecue nearby, which is highly praised by programmers.
When making skewers, you must have fried rice, grilled eggplant with vermicelli, and crayfish with beer. Although I don’t have a girlfriend, I must order two more oysters.
Writing code is also a strenuous job, isn’t it?
After you finish, you may have to go back to the company and use Jiu Jin to fulfill your needs.
Finally, there is accommodation:
There are two types of accommodation in the program, either very elegant, or a million-dollar mansion where you can walk to work.
Although it is fun to write code, when encountering temporary insertion requirements, time is inevitably tight.
So there is usually a camp bed next to the programmer's seat. When he is tired, he can sleep for a while, get up and open the project again. I was itching not to solve this bug, so I worked on it until late at night, and I just made do at night.
Why don’t you go home? The essence of a rental house is the same as a camp bed, where you sleep, and you don't have a girlfriend anyway. The most I can do when I go home is call my former classmates and play two rounds of DOTA on YY and I will be satisfied.
Speaking of girlfriends, a programmer’s wife can be said to be Schrödinger’s cat. There are only two states: yes and no. She is either single. Once she has a girlfriend, she must be rushing to get married.
Unlike the planner who either spends half his life being a bachelor or flirts with women, he can be said to be a scumbag in comparison.
He has a house, a wife, shares in the company, his car is parked in the garage, and he walks to and from get off work every day. This is the low-key luxury of an elderly programmer.
The last big killer:
There is another way to assist in judging programmers, which is to send volume.
The person with more hair may be an excellent programmer, but don’t underestimate the person with less hair. He must be an experienced driver with an annual income of millions.
As a pure intellectual worker, it is inevitable for programmers to lose hair easily under high-intensity work day and night. So the program must take good care of itself.
As soon as I get into the elevator after going to work, the huge and precisely placed advertisements in the building hit my heart.
# Behind this simple life, what is rare is the innocent heart of programmers.
If you think about it, when you earn 30,000 to 40,000 yuan a month, the biggest pleasure every day is to play with codes, buy mechanical keyboards, go to Zhihu to watch other people bragging, and play DOTA, no matter how much you spend, Add a big monitor.
I don’t do whoring, gambling, or taking drugs, and I don’t know how to spend my money, so I have to save up to buy a house. When I have a girlfriend, I will hold it in my hand for fear of melting, so I will rush to get married.
Looking back at game planning, if you don’t have money, you still want to go out and have sex all day long. If you want to find a girlfriend, you still can’t rest. At the age of 30, if there are no successful projects in your resume, you will just take pills. Your career is still short.
After such a comparison, programmers really don’t know how high they are. Where can they find such a son-in-law?
