Amen. I once had an interview where they asked what my skill is with .net on a scale of 1 - 10. I answered 6.5 even though at the time I had been doing it for 7 years. They looked annoyed and said they were looking for someone who was a 10. I countered with nobody is a 10, not them or even the people working on the framework itself. I didn’t pass the interview and I think this question was why.
The people who say coding is easy do it because it does become easy eventually and then eventually you forget how hard it was in the beginning. It’s also a lot easier if you find it fun and can practice in an environment where you don’t have crazy deadlines to meet and have a good teacher or mentor who is willing to help along the way.
