Or they’d be pushing paper somewhere else.

I’d believe that, if they weren’t already paying the architect salary to have us do interior design. They hire us, then shackle us.

That doesn’t mean if you get rid of insurance jobs, they would be nurses.

Haha! Exactly! I do some coding, too, but I can’t think like a UXer and a dev at the same time.

It’s the “making it pretty” part that makes me bitter. That is the LEAST part of what we do.

It’s like asking an architect to come in and fix the building after it’s already mostly built. Bad PMs insist on seeing us like interior decorators, but we are primarily architects.

Speaking as a UX designer, probably because some “product manager” decided it was too expensive to override the auto- sort that was applied before the designer was brought in to “pretty things up.”

There is no tone of bitterness in my comment, honestly there isn’t.

As a UX designer who decided not to be a doctor though I could have, I don’t think this is how it works.

Plants also react to being harmed, so it’s arguable they don’t feel pain.
