Been a developer now for 3 hours ...

[juststarting]

Well I have been learning development now for about 3 hours doing some Microsoft HOLs ( I was away for awile but just heard the newest kid on the block - a "snack" , a learning snack !! ) .... I havent written a single line of code yet .... it is just soooo much simplier than I thought - just select this and that , drag this there , fill this field ..... this is easier than I thought ! I can really get into this programming business ... after first look - it is the same as infrastructure - just windows and windows and windows.

Anyway , back to my learning snack - creating a Web Part.

Now , I dare the next agent who calls me to ask me weather I am a developer and can create web parts !

Another 20 years and you'll have served your time.

I started developing a year ago, I only managed a couple of hours before I realised it wasn't for me.

Still, I have 12 months more experience than you on my CV.

Well, it's a start.

Most unfortunate that things you get asked to do in real life bear zip all resemblance to things that are easily done in tutorials.

Now now, give the Charlatan a chance.

I am still baffled though about talking to the next girl in the next bar about "Creating a Web Part". Not sure if it is going to work on her ? But anyway if it doesnt , soon I will now so much more things , like creating an event receiver , for example... then , then it will be easier...

And Microsoft really ? "A learning snack" ? That is just sick....

Thinking Lego, sounds like your making great leaps in Duplo, could be a while until you get to Technic.
