I just left, after some decades, not switched to anything else.
Friend of mine though, he became a postman, about ten years ago. He was never quite happy being a software engineer. I see him occasionally and he's always happy with a job where he gets to work by walking around in the open most of the day.
- JKCalhoun 5y agoThat's awesome. Funny how, as you get older, you might be bolting across "campus" to catch a meeting in another building, laptop under your arm, cutting across "the quad" to save time. For a second you catch a glimpse of the gardener outdoors in the sun, weeding around the perimeter of the quad and the thought suddenly occurs to you that he may well be enjoying life more than you. To be sure, the pay is great, but as you get on in years it becomes easier to consider if you might already have "made enough".
