We don't need to work (for you)
- IT went through a change where high demand for workers with very limited supply
- Everyone will be a programmer - not going to happen
- Companies are used to workers not wanting to be fired - unspoken social rules are based on this
- Some tech companies try to change the relationship in strange ways - free food, slides, cocoons - pampering programmers
- Programmer salaries are through the roof
What will happen if it gets more so
- Companies will have split personalities about how it treats programmers vs other employees
- Traditional workplace structures will be increasingly awkward for programmers
