Yes, this is the nature of being spoiled rotten.

I am not a software engineer and have never felt stable in my 30 year career.

It always feels like the rug could get pulled out from under me at any time.

So what? It is still better than working in coal mine. It is still more interesting than working at a gas station.

Hard to feel sorry for people basically complaining the work ping pong table doesn't have quite the quality ping pong balls they were expecting.

It is an interesting mix of being both super elitist and completely infantile at the same time.
