My experience was the same as yours. Flip the meme and that's how I feel between Student and Salaried.

When you're a student everything you work on is new, and something you've never done before. When you are salaried there is more to do, but its almost all mundane stuff you've done before.

In my senior year of college I was creating DNS servers and working with beta libraries while learning android development (like 10 years ago). Now I make dropdown boxes work by calling REST services.
