I''ve been working for a company as an electrical engineer for the past 8 years. This is the only job I''ve had since I''ve been out of school. I enjoy my job for the most part, but I''ve always wondered how I''d like a job as a programmer. I''ve enjoyed programming as a hobby for many years. However, I''m reluctant to pursue a programming job because I''m worried that once I turn the hobby into a job, I won''t enjoy it anymore. I just wanted to get thoughts or opinions from those out there who program for a living. Do you enjoy your job, or do you just look forward to the end of the day so you can go home and work on your own projects? Thanks, Bart

When I worked as a game programmer, I really enjoyed my work, I was thinking of the stuff to do even at home.
When I worked as a web programmer, on the other hand, I really hated it.

Hi!

I am software developer for over 10 years now, and i like my job. I make database application, statistics,... at work, and i try to make games in spare time (not all my spare time -> only a few hours a week are not enough to make big games, but perhaps i will finish one or two small games).
