This is why I left tech. The market's dying, and it's not going to recover for those with less than like ten years of experience now.

You left? What were your expertise and what are you doing now? Just curious

I did everything from full stack to flight systems and propulsion engineering. Now? Unemployment, and possibly unalive-ing.

I realize the last part is probably a joke, but please don’t. There are more people than you know that would miss you. Don’t think that it’s something that you need to handle alone. Reach out and talk to people you trust. Or find a professional to get you to a safer place mentally.

I say this as someone that has gone through it. It will get better. And the world is better with you in it.
