I have two young sons. I have worked in the computer industry (for a major multinational) for 12 years. Based on my experiences of my employers predatory and exploitative treatment of its computer workers, I am determined to advise my sons not to go anywhere near computers, especially programming, in their own careers. Instead I shall be advising them to study an area that offers a genuine career such as medicine, the law, education, the police, etc. Many of my colleagues feel the same.
