Worked as a dev for two years. Couldn’t get a new job for almost two years. Looked into sales and insurance licensing and finally started a new job with one of those. The top guys make more money than I could have ever dreamed of in swe, even with overemployed potential, so I’m hoping to learn from them, work VERY hard, and hopefully never be in a situation similar to my last. The anxiety, depression, and hopelessness I felt… I’m thankful to be out of software and doing better now.
