            Exactly, because doing just one impossible thing a day isn't enough.

                  Having the users constantly thank you for your brilliance. That's #1 for me. *smiles* "Oh, just doing my job..!" #2 is having the right music while coding...

                          when after hours and hours of debugging you find the root of the bug in your code.

                            Clear requirements, sane deadlines, reliable hardware and software, a reasonably free hand to admin his own machine, and time-and-a-half for overtime.

                            When posting here, I do not represent anybody but myself.

                                It's sort of ambivalent feeling, because finding your bug usually shows you, how stupid were you while writing this particular piece of code. Unless it's a bug of someone else of course :).
