    When i worked as a web developer, I could bang out HTML/PHP/JavaScript with my eyes closed…

    Until, that dreaded moment where quantum uncertainty is destroyed by the simple act of a coworker glancing at my screen.

    Suddenly, it’s like you gave a typewriter to a coked up parakeet, hunting and pecking with no regards over where the blinky text input thingie is, trying desperately to look like you know what you’re doing, but the harder you try, the clearer it becomes that you’re just an imposter! Pretending to know what you’re doing, but everyone can tell, just look at you!?

    So, I have a couple therapy credits left on my health ‘benefits’ package, I think I’m gonna make an appointment… /rant
