I’m sorry but I respectfully disagree. 40+\hr is good money. Maybe not in the Bay Area, but it’s a pretty good damn wage. If you don’t buy crap you don’t need like a boat, new pickup trucks, and divorce settlements. We have a good gig here. Stop selling yourselves short.
I’m doing coding classes at night after work just for
s and giggles and maybe some side projects/money in the future. But I sure as hell am not quitting here to stare at a cpu screen all day for 75k, crap benefits and 1 maybe 2 weeks of vacation.
Live like you’re middle class, and this gig provides a pretty good life. Not everybody is meant to have a 1 million dollar house. And I’m fine with that. Just my 2 cents
