I was trying/planning to get out right before the market nosedived. I was planning on my previous job being the last job I ever worked in software, at least for the time being.
Of course when I lost my job that all went out the window. Now it just seems infeasible to leave. I’d be fine paycut, hell I already had to take one, but the cost both in time and money to retrain to something else (that I think I wouldn’t enjoy at least) are too high.
I didn’t really want to go into software in the first place, but I was in a position in early adulthood where it looked best option available to me. In retrospect I wish I had done something else, and possibly later moved to into software development, because it seems a hell of a lot easier going that direction.
