I have two options now. Working in a simple not well paid job i am trained in or continue working in IT. I would leave coding and switching to Helpdesk in IT since I burned out as a programmer. I believe the tech industry propaganda brought me to programming so I left the simple job I’m thinking going back to again.
Do you feel like you were passionate about programming? The great thing about programming is that you an always work on free time hobby projects for a very low cost. And I feel like programming is a job where you can jump back in whenever if you have a repository to show for it.
I’d personally say you don’t need to worry about losing the career if you want to hop onto a simpler job for awhile to work on yourself!
I concur. It’s not worth it to burn out. Keep up your programming chops on the side and it you want to come back, you have a repo to show future employers.
