I have a profound respect and reverence for people who pursue careers (or anything, for that matter) because of an innate passion. Unfortunately, I don't really feel that way about anything that could be considered or performed as an occupation. Certainly not programming. For me— and probably a lot of others— the allure of programming is in the intuitive ease that some find with it, combined with the inordinately inflated salaries.

If you feel that you're getting paid too much to sit for 8 to 10 hours solving problems by writing code into a machine and trying to work with a team and trying to meet specifications and ultimately what the customer needs; you should ask for a salary reduction.
