Honestly, at 45 with a very patchy CV because I was forced to become a full time carer more than once (fuck cancer), I'm probably fucked.

Feel like I might as well flush my degrees down the toilet. Luckily I live in Europe, so I didn't have to go into a huge amount of debt for them.

That's life I suppose. Sticking around for the life ending asteroid Hollywood has promised us.

I've climbed the corporate ladder and traveled all over the world until I got near the top where the nepotism is thick. Said 'fuck that' and bailed out early.

New plan: "Work for myself." Took me a decade to get here because of little things like health care and capital.

Been on my own for almost 2 years now and it is glorious.

I wish factory jobs paid better. Many of them are chill and easy.

So uh...we are all clearly unhappy, is any of us going to do anything about this? (I already stated I am, some community idea).

IT security is like that. It's really boring until it isn't.

If you do your job right, nobody will know you did anything at all.

If I could organize the arkane library daily with my current salary, I would be happy

I'm 40 and getting my massage therapy license out of nowhere. Similar line of thinking.

Every interview: "oh great! You have a lot of manager experience! We've been looking for somebody with those skills!"

Me: "I'm not really looking to be in charge of people. I find the generational differences too tiring. I can't relate and I'm tired of having to tell children to put away their phones."

And within a year I'm a manager again. Just can't seem to shake it. Which is why every damn job on my resume is manager. At least this time around I am managing things and not people. So a little better.

Yeah, feel the same since the great slopification of the internet and also my job...
