Normal hours, occasional crunch, not quite death-march territory.
Lying flat is a life philosophy, and I will not be taking questions.
Good enough is good enough — we're not launching rockets here.

Wearing the mask most of the time, occasionally letting a genuine curse slip.
Still thinking about that bug at 3 AM — anxiety levels rivaling the night before finals.
Even when your code works, you suspect the compiler has a bug.
Resignation letter is already written — just waiting for the final straw.
AI? Let's wait and see — let others be the guinea pigs first.
Forced to learn new tech because the boss said so — powering through reluctantly.
