Nothing is wrong with bus drivers! :-) I'm not sure comparing software developers to bus drivers is a metaphor that gets us very far... In fact, why some bus drivers might want to really be flying fighter jets also had me scratching my head.


More like bus drivers wanting to become heavy machinery operators...


Kind of like the loads of everyday bus drivers safely carrying many more users around, compared to the uncommon fighter pilot doing risky things very few users will need to do.
