I am thankful for my new job. After graduating, I worked at a defense contractor for over a year and got tasked with basically nothing and had no one care about results, staying current, or learning, and I felt it. They kept saying things would change when I got my security clearance, but as I talked to more and people, I realized that it wouldn't be enough of a change, so I switched industries. In my new role, I am learning a ton (because they decided to hire me even though I didn't have the knowledge they originally wanted) and I am loving it. My team is super helpful and I'm reminded why I first enjoyed programming and problem solving.
