Just curious, what do you guys actually do for a living?
Scrolling through comments here, you can tell there’s a huge mix of people, some clearly technical, some more creative, some who sound like they’ve been in the working world for decades, others who feel like students or early in their career.
No particular reason for asking, just genuinely curious what kind of professions make up this community. Feel free to keep it as vague or specific as you’re comfortable with.
Drop your profession below, and if you want, one thing about it people usually don’t expect.
I used to work in IT, got fed up with that and switched to trades (joiner, tiler, and such), started doing property renovations, then covid & lockdown stopped that.
Then my parents got ill and I pretty much have to take care of them.
IT is that bad huh?, during covid i had female coworker in another job said she left it because they were offering severance during the beginning of covid, she found it too stressful to stay anyways.
Depends on the job, company and person.
For some it’s stressfull, for some it’s challenging but managable and some just need it.
I personally think I can handle it but the ups and downs of stress sometimes seem to get me.
seems alot of people leaving it are of that group.although she does have some pre(almost conditions) that is worsened by the stress.
