If I were to change careers, I think I’d go into politics and become some type of political operative. I like the process, I like the issues, I like the strategy. It would flex a completely different set of mental muscles than my software engineering job and to me, that would be quite a welcome challenge.
- mrfusion 8y agoDevelopers are too naive for politics. It would spin your head so fast you wouldn’t even know what hit you.
- Spartan-S63 8y agoThat's quite the condescending generalization you're making there. That might not be your intention, but that's the way this comment came across.
- mrfusion 8y agoSorry. Yeah you’re right it is too much of a generalization. I’d amend it to be developers I’ve met.
- Spartan-S63 8y agoIt takes something to realize you may have over generalized. Thank you for the apology. I appreciate interactions like these on the internet as opposed to animosity.
- mrfusion 8y agoWell good luck to you. Reach out if you actually pursue this. Happy to help.
