    52 Reasons Why Programmers Work On Weekends

    A client asked me: Why do you work so much on weekends?
    Not wanting to disappoint, I spend Monday writing them a reply...
    Rich on appropriately named Rich Internet Applications blog gives 52 reasons why programmers work weekends.
    Here are some of them:
    Software development is to programmers what music is to musicians.

    We hate working on Mondays.

    A pretty geeky bunch, we find our computers a great source of entertainment on weekends – better than most crap on TV

    Everything a programmer needs, apart from food, water, and going to the toilet, is available online; dating, shopping; porn; blogging, you name it – we made it.

    We have a secret love affair with our machines (but would never admit it).

    As creatures of habit we are rather addicted to what we do. Every programmer knows that when they run into a problem nothing else seems to matter more than fixing it – whether the house is burning down or not is rather irrelevant.

    We have so much outboard gear like iPods, phones, TV Games, etc that it takes the whole weekend to sync it all with our laptops

    We are great sharers of knowledge and spend time in forums and the like asking each other questions and giving our answers. Every programmer knows there is no error whose resolutions cannot be searched for on Google. Why? Because we typed it in to a forum somewhere on a weekend.

    Programmers don't really consider what they do to be 'working' – but rather having fun. That's what weekends are for right?

Volutpat.

    Q: How many programmers does it take to screw in a light bulb?

    A: None; it's a hardware problem. (*)

    (*) Hardware problem: A problem your programmers want nothing to do with
