There are very few things as satisfying as destruction, especially when we’re frustrated.

How often do you have an issue that you cannot solve and you just want to scream or take a hammer and destroy servers in your datacenter? Or how often do you have a problem in production that is negatively affecting a lot of users, and you are under a lot of pressure to solve it but cannot “crack” it as fast as you should. You have probably experienced this at least once. If something like this has never happened to you, then you have probably never been in a position under a lot of pressure. However, in my case, there have been countless instances when I wanted to destroy things out of frustration. But I didn’t, for quite a few reasons. Destruction rarely solves problems, and it usually leads to negative consequences. I cannot just go and destroy a server and expect that I will not be punished.
