I’ve been fired recently from a full stack position and I started working on a farm. I’m not in US and I’m not rich enough to afford to stay home. I feel that in a few months I would like to look around and see opportunities to switch my career to some tradie job like plumbing, which in many countries are paid almost as software engineers. At least it could give me a meaning and probably a bit less uncertainty than software engineer for the future

Even in the US you can quickly get to sw eng level after a few years in the trades, which are booming right now And bonus, it’s a direct step from there to starting your own business in that trade then making way more Of course you could start a software agency too but the competition is way more cutthroat
