Wow! That's really a breaking news! You should start a "RIP" thread to let everyone know. 
You have just been Sharapova'd.

This might also mean that you are pursuing a career where it doesn't even feels like a work. You are absolutely enjoying the stuff you are doing at the moment.
Enjoy till it last, as very few get such an great opportunity.
Cheers!

It's a place where you're expected to be awake and not drinking gin for 8 or 9 hours. You probably wouldn't like it much.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

I'm currently in a trade-school type program to become a .NET developer, and am in a 'project management' mini course that has a project that requires me and my teammates to gather 30 interviews with .NET developers. To simplify this, we have created a simple survey that asks the questions we need answered.
It would help us out a lot if you could give us some feedback! I promise this isn't spam! Here is a link to the survey (via Google Forms).

"How many cups of coffee do you drink in a day?" What the elephant does this have to do with being a .NET developer? And why is this survey not anonymous? Why are you asking people what companies they work for and how much they earn?

Hi Jason
I just had a look at your survey intending to help you out. But I'm sorry, some of the questions you ask are way too personal and cannot possibly be of interest in a course paper.
Either you've misunderstood your task or you have some hidden agenda that has nothing to do with school, I cannot tell which.
But you'll have to count me out...

Ditto; focussing more on payment and coffeeconsumption; read like something from a headhunter.

Heck, I wouldn't mind being headhunted. But this seems like a very strange way of doing it.
Also, "Jason Smith" is a completely new account, and claiming to be a Swedish student. It's not exactly a Swedish name, and although we DO have foreign students here of course, I find it quite strange.

OK. So I'm not so sure why exactly everyone assumes I'm asking about their actual pay. We don't ask anything about the pay itself, but rather if you were satisfied with it, and how the pay progression was. These are important questions for people about to enter the field regarding their pay. Granted, we probably shouldn't have a blurb afterwords asking for other comments on pay, cause I could see how that could cause confusion in hindsight.
Now, a link to the course plan: http://www.nyhs.se/nyhsitkursplan[^]
We are in the projektmetodik (project methods) course right now and the project is to interview 30 .NET Developers. We only have like 2 days to get the interviews, which is why we decided to create a survey in order to reach the goal.
As far as the goal of this survey, the questions (outside of the first round of stuff) is focused on getting an idea of what it would be like to work as a .NET developer. The coffee question is more of a light hearted joke, as I have actually worked in a company in which the developers gathered around the coffee machine several times a day.
What can I do or change to make the survey better so that you guys feel safe and that this has no malicious intent? I'm perfectly fine making changes. Regarding anonymity, none of the fields are obligatory, so you can just leave stuff out if you don't want to answer it.
[EDIT]
BTW, my name is Jason Smith because I immigrated to Sweden in 2012. I'm actually from, of all places, Tupelo, MS, the birthplace of Elvis. Men jag kan prata svenska om du vill. Now you guys probably have enough info to commit identity theft on me now, so I can't imagine how much clearer I can be about who I am and what I'm doing.

Still not convinced, can you provide a bank account number and sort code please, just so we can be sure?
How do you know so much about swallows? Well, you have to know these things when you're a king, you know.

..and being satisfied (or not) with payment or the amount of coffee does not give an impression of the work.

Rather similar to working as a developer in another language
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microserfs[^]. It is not just about a day, and it does not focus on .NET, but it will give you a good idea on what you can expect from the industry.

The most important concept to grab is the WTFJHTPH. If this gets over 20 WTF/h most people will walk away no mater how much coffee/gin/spondulacks is on offer. Speaking for minion legion, we want to be kept in warm dry place out of the reach of children.
Hang on is that medicine?
It is, isn't it?
I feel such a fool now.
