Most people are in their prime at like 35
look at my age
look at my lifeWell fuck.
Im 50 soon.
I mean sure, I no longer have excitement for IT. Ive seen so many trends and ive seen us just spinning the wheels. We dont actually get anywhere. Things get more complex and it solves some problems and creates others.
When I was younger, I actually got excited about stuff in IT. So that has changed. But still, its possible to work and just have a ordinary job doing ordinary stuff. Dont need to get hired at Google. :)
you got any more of those ordinary jobs? scratches neck
Exactly the same for me. I already had leading roles in my last few jobs, but this year I switched to a job without any coding. I am just burnt out. I have seen too many languages, paradigms and frameworks over the years. I still write code and pick up new languages. But only for me. I can’t handle dealing with code every day anymore. I am working at a co-op now, so there’s no insane drive to make billionaires happy. And I really hope I can stay there until retirement.

So, you’re a manual labourer with no qualifications or skills, and you’re starting to feel the effects of that?
Most people are qualified and starting to earn decent money by their thirties.
god i wish lol
OP’s fat and/or has been sitting in a chair his whole life if he can’t hang at labor in his 30s. Fuck me, I’m 54, work my ass of at Lowe’s, after working IT for 20-years, can still hang. Barely.
I have seen people destroy their backs working as a soda merchandiser before their 40s. That can be a surprisingly brutal job with ridiculous demands.
Manual labour requires a lot of skill and by 30+ you need to acquire it or you’ll destroy your body. There are jobs that require only a few hours of learning but they rarely are intensive, just extremely boring.
What are you calling manual labor? Methinks you paint with a very small brush.
There are definitely manual labour jobs that require little to no skill, a lot of site labourer work is like that. Carrying wallboard, emptying bins, just generally carrying shit around.
Don’t know where do you live, but around here there is no construction jobs that only require you only to carry shit around. Also you need to learn a lot to carry shit around correctly unless you have spare back.
In Quebec they’re called “journaliers” and being assigned to the Mason as a “journalier” sucks big time.
It’s the entry level position in construction for people who didn’t get a professional degree in a specific trade.
I think they are called handyman in english, and it’s an extremely hard and shitty job that doesn’t require a lot of learning, true, it does require skill to do it properly and efficiently, and in way that won’t leave you invalid by 40. Good handymen often learn other skills and obtain ‘real’ profession, so it’s more like a starter point of a career for many.
Glad to be enlightened, clearly this doesn’t happen, since you haven’t experienced it.
Big construction sites where I live definitely have such people, and it’s a horrible job.
