“Expecting a return on investment from jobs should not be mistaken for the selfish and unprofessional attitude known as “CV building,” where developers don’t care about their jobs and are there just to improve their CVs, choosing technologies and methodologies for personal reasons and not because they are fit for a specific purpose.”

“Happy people simply do better—at home, at work, in life. They make more money, they have better jobs, they graduate from college, and they live longer. It’s quite remarkable. Almost universally they’re just better at what they do.”

“Choosing jobs just for the money can bring our careers to a halt, making it almost impossible to put it in motion again.”
