that's exactly the situation I am in. I know I hate my job and want to quit, but then I think: to do what? all other job prospects would be more of the same
People don't understand how the world works when it comes to such things. A career in tech is not suitable for everyone just like becoming a doctor or teacher is not suitable for everyone. You need certain inclinations/talents. >

No, you don’t need talent. You do need desire >

Clearly not. Only the lowly English major needs to know the definition of words. >

The real success is to be good in a domain you like. >

People post what they know, comp sci has more access to Reddit throughout the day so you get more Comp Sci people posting their experiences. It's nothing more than that. >

I'm in tech and I'd love to leave it for something else. I've grown to hate it. I was thinking the other day what else I could possibly do to make ends meet. I think I'd have to drastically cut back on everything, or start my own business, or go back to school for some sort of medical degree. >

same. A cage with golden bars. >

A 100%, What I hate the most is if your tech job sucks.. these days the only change you make is for 1 money or 2 new team. the job it self remains mostly the same.. Which makes finding a new job super hard as you know you will not be happy in the long run and change job again.. repeat untill retirement... :(
