I haven’t worked for an employer in a long long time. I do occasional projects, and they are mine to do, so I don’t have to deal with incompetent programmers. I can’t work well with them, because they are too much of a hindrance and slow me down more than help.
Give me a couple or three really good programmers, though, and it’s pretty cool to bounce off one another.

In too many places today they think you are slacking off if you aren’t typing code. They want things created on the fly and too much software shows the effects. The rumor is that OOP has eliminated the need to plan and design a solution – you simply drag and drop modules.
