To those not in the IT industry, what do you think programming is like?
I've always been curious as to what "normal" people think programming is like. The wildest theory I've heard is "typing ones and zeroes" (I'm a software engineer)

8 hours of meetings and 10 minutes of writing code.
Nailed it!
When I was an associate level all I did was grind out tickets and write code. Now I run from meeting to meeting as a senior.
That's no fucking joke. Please just send me an email about this meeting because it's not really worthwhile and I just want to crank out code.
As a principal, I default ignore all meetings that’s more then 2 people, review other people’s terrible code, then refactor large swaths of the code base when I get bored.
That’s surprising accurate for many developers.
This should have been an email so I could ignore it and get work done.
