Best advice I could give to a young person is to stay out of tech, unless they happen to love it.
The industry is shit. The requirements insane. The pay, deteriorating.
Go to trade school and get a dang freon license and do HVAC. Or do apprentice welding. Or plumbing. Or for heaven sakes electrical.
You’ll never lack dough or work.
best advice. learn welding at a trade school in 7 months, come out making 40k a year right off rip. warning potential skyrockets from there as you specialize. considered swapping careers myself at one point. if i didn’t have a family i would have.

Or stay in and out of tech at the same time. Do tech, but not for tech company.
