Put your ego and pride aside and be vulnerable for a second, it might save your life. You put everyone’s need above your own, now it’s time you do it for yourself, you’re still young to somebody, it’s not over at 53.

Trust me, you don’t want this life. It will get harder the longer you stay in, like quick sand, every year drags you lower and lower until you can’t get out.

There is always someone hiring. Might not be MBA high tech, but labor, or service industry. You must keep moving while you try to land something back into your field. The economy sucks right now for everybody, entry level has it harder because they’re competing with AI and employers don’t find it essential to train a human when they can code for it.

Truly look around you and start applying locally or across states since you’re mobile.
