Reasons why I think it is good ๐Ÿ‘ to be a developer ๐Ÿ–ฅ

In the last years I started enjoying more and more my job as developer. I have to admit this is in large measure related to the fact that I started working almost entirely with โค๏ธ frontend technologies โค๏ธ. But aside from this, there are also many other benefits that we cannot find in other professions.

Below I created a short list of reasons why I love my IT job:

  1. Face new challenges every day and feeling proud when we fix a problem.
  2. Not a repetitive tasks (otherwise we automatise the process! ๐Ÿ˜„).
  3. Being able to fix grandma's ๐Ÿ‘ต Pc and explain her how to use Skype!
  4. The possibility of learning something new almost every day.
  5. Usually free coffee/tea โ˜• beverages offered by the the employer.
  6. Being able to collaborate with a world wide community.
  7. Developers demand increases constantly, therefore it will be a stable job for the future.
  8. Being able to create something that works (most of the time ๐Ÿ˜ฒ) starting from nothing.
  9. Writing articles to share personal know how and being able to reach potentially anyone in the world.
  10. Allowing to start a private business with a very low to no budget available.
  11. The possibility to attend international conferences and meet many great colleagues.
  12. Linked to the previous one, the possibility to give talks to public tech events and spread knowledge.
  13. Remote work ๐Ÿ We can work whenever we want and from wherever we like!
  14. Being pushed to think out of the box to find creative solutions.
