What industry would you shift to, though? This seems to be endemic amongst most industries right now (that could work from home). It is making me consider shifting to going freelance again. Can't force myself to go to the office that way. Or try to start my own business I guess, but I don't really have enough saved up that I'd feel comfortable making my family go through a prolonged period of no income.

That's an excellent question, and I don't have an answer yet. Programming is the only marketable skill I have. Learning a trade such as plumbing or being an electrician is something that I've been thinking about. I have started several businesses of my own over the decades, and doing it again is a real possibility. At least, it's a reasonable fallback position.

    I don't hire plumbers or electricians that need to commute 2 hours each way.

    Plumber and electricians don't work in cube farms or horrible corporate campuses.
