I don't think you need to learn an "ancient technology". There is plenty of work in traditional corporations. You just need to find one that has legs so you can ride it out for the next 30 years. A steady job, 5 weeks of vacation after 15 years, benefits. If your lucky you can become a number and slowly disappear, spending more time doing your own thing. Long lunches, nap in the car, run some errands, etc.
Eventually everyone runs out of piss and vinegar. It's not so bad.

- hourislate 10y agoLife is short, how much of it are you willing to give away. That may not resonate with you now but wait until you're in your 40's or 50's and 10-20 years has passed.
- pnathan 10y agoI like what I do. I like going to work. I like my company. I like coming home to my baby and tickling his feet. It's life. Being a lazy bum not accomplishing what you want to do shortchanges you and your life as well as the people paying you. My father in law has a saying: "if you don't like what you do, what are you doing?". And I agree with that.
- ribasushi 10y ago> I like what I do You are fortunate. But labeling everyone who "doesn't like what they do" misguided lazy bums is... a bit much. Most people in this state are slowly recuperating from years of failure while attempting to "do what they like". Usually as a bonus they also have to dig themselves from under a crushing mountain of debt. As you correctly pointed out - it's life. Though it's rarely as simple as you paint it.
- hourislate 10y agoYou have a lot to learn.....You'll figure it out eventually.
