Your sound like an executive too, putting emphasis on well-researched words, and mentioning things like capturing inspiration.
As far as I've seen, there is little inspiration involved in most programming environments, just a lot of thinking.

I'll just leave it at this. Isn't inspiration often the end-result of careful thought?
I don't see what about an office makes it the right place for the thinking you see in programming environments. I've solved more hard problems in the shower than I have at my desk.
I know there are many people like you that somehow intuitively capture these abstract concepts, and I respect that. I just find it amusing that you can notice these things even when the person is out of work. That's when you differentiate the manipulative managers from the true ones.
My point wasn't particularly focusing in offices. Being pragmatic and rather emotion-less, I find programming requires more logic and method than feelings.
Certainly there are many dull development jobs that require no inspiration or even much thinking - I worked in many of them before I got bored to death and started my own business.
If you are in one of those dead-end jobs, you're not the kind of person that enjo is talking about.
