writing login pages

Originally written by Jonathan Coulton in his 2005 song "Code Monkey", Writing Login Pages is a euphemism for the monotony of computer programming and software engineering work. Thousands of STEM students will find themselves in soulless jobs where they will never complete a more challenging task than a traditionally simple thing like writing a login page.

I spent $80,000 on a degree that I thought would bring in good money doing something I'm passionate about. Instead I'm writing login pages.
