That programming as a career means you're going to spend writing nice, clean code 80% of the time.

It's rather debugging code or tooling problems 50% of the time, talking to other people (whether necessary or not) about 35% of the time and the rest may be spent on actually spending time doing the thing you actually enjoy.

I may be exaggerating, but only a little.

I really don't mind any of it though.
