that must be a joke, because I as remember programming it is the most stressful job, full of deadlines, failures and firings. You never know what will go wrong and how many days would it take to implement feature X. There is always this bug, that makes million USD losses and you are the guilty.

A copper job is a lot easier. You have a gun and you use it on that filthy nigger, then the revolution starts and the whole country is on fire.

It's easy to not care about your job and still do the work. Stress is harmful to both health and performance. But the culture surrounding the profession is to care and to stress constantly about everything. And those that are not stressed are perceived as irresponsible. An unexpectedly large part of the job is maintaining a certain image in the face of a group of people, who all seem to belong to a narrow and homogeneous culture.
It was always a cultural problem. While overworking was okay in 90ies for people working from their garages and making millions of innovative ideas, today working hard for annual $20000 is a waste, even for your average indira gandhi.

If you don't think programming is low-stress, try a job that isn't...

>>15 This may surprise some, but low stress jobs do exist. But I'm not aware of any low stress white collar jobs.
Police officer is a fairly low stress job: you eat donuts, take bribery and stay away, while niggers loot shit.
Pimp is a low stress too and you get free chicks, but you have to be black to apply for a position.

Sometimes I just want to open up my own bakery and bake pastries all day.
When I had a programming job, they allowed only intranet, so I had to memorize entire MSDN, because managers became angry when somebody used a cell phone internet.
