So what's a disaffected self-loathing techie to do when it's time for her to leave the industry
@hupfen You just go. If it sucks, hit da bricks! #dasharezone

@fuzzwolf yes, but much like going outside IRL, I hit the conundrum of: go *where*?

(This is something I've struggled with for years and I know there isn't a universal easy answer but break out the chardonnay cause it's whine-o-clock baby)

@hupfen Yeah, I wish I had good advice on that. My boyfriend wants out of tech too because he finds it miserable, but it pays well and his job is stable for now.
@hupfen lots of people dream of making fursuits, apparently
@hupfen I went with marry a doctor and eventually start a Twitch stream but I recognize there are many reasons this isn't useful as advice.
@marcmagus Yeah I already have a twitch stream so that's right out
@hupfen that's when I hopped into technical writing, which isn't really leaving the industry but made me less exasperated with it. I think you've already done that, though.
@chipotle Naw, never managed to make the jump. Maybe I should try again
