Tech workers are lucky that for many of us this is possible. You don't see "older nurses are tapping out early" because financially they can't.

- JohnFen 3mo ago> You don't see "older nurses are tapping out early" because financially they can't. In the US, anyway, you do see that. Experienced nurses make money comparable to what experienced devs make, and as the doctor and nurse shortage worsens, making life harder for those that remain, more of them are deciding to leave early.
- fred_is_fred 3mo agoThis is what I see for my state: "The average salary for a Registered Nurse in Colorado with 25 years of experience ranges from $115,000 to over $140,000 annually". A dev with the same experience I think is at least 50% more than this.
- JohnFen 3mo agoI suppose that I should have added "in my state" to my comment about comparable wages. I can't speak to any other regions.
