Just wanted to say I've felt very similarly recently. Honestly feels like we need a place to continue to discuss post-tech career paths for mid-career engineers.
I've been considering becoming an electrician but it is also quite a career shift.
Restarting a career seems so hard. Looking at engineering programs and having to spend thousands just doesn’t sit well. I suspect many of us will just keep doing “software” until they won’t pay us anymore.
That's currently my plan. I have kids, so I need to squeeze software dry.
