What is yur favorite and least favorite part of this job:
Favorite part is the feeling that everything I do is solving a puzzle. Plus there is something cool about see the process of turning cryptic words on a screen into a functioning application that can make a difference to someone.
There is no worst part. A programmer has to have a passion for the development world that far exceeds their job. Since this is my job, my passion and my hobby there is nothing I don't like.
I get excited from success, learn from failure, and become better with each bug that is found in my code.
