It's been a challenge for me to stay in the code, where I like to be. I hire people, then reduce staff, then hire someone else, and spend half my time on taxes and other government paperwork. I just like the clever algorithms. I like to find hard to impossible programming tasks and find a way to cheat to get it done. (Like my favorite, doing all of the intensive processing once, ahead of time.)
