VBA is joyless. I started my career as VBA dev. It was the shitiest job I've ever had and worst job I can imagine to do. Bloated unreliable with disgusting API (like try catching for contains method on collection).
VBA sucks, but come on, there are worse jobs out there.
Carpel tunnel, ocular cancer, and brain damage.
Having that job put all my programming jobs in perspective. To preserve that I have a picture of a dude in a coal mine by my phone at work. Any time I'm asked to submit a pointless form, I think of that guy. I don't do this to shame myself but rather to put my work problems into perspective which helps me.
Come on.
The worst was maintaining a Hotel front office guest system written in GW-Basic
