When I was a kid I wanted to be a CEO of a tech company. (Which was turbo cringe.)

Now I’d like to have a boring job and be someone’s mom/aunt.

    then i actually got into the tech industry and realized i’m not that driven or passionate about computer to reach those levels

    I enjoy programming, but dear god I’d be constantly angry at crap not working.

    Plus I don’t thing anyone wants some woman in a cubical constantly screaming at computers and cursing software developers.

      for me it’s that i like programming but i hate that there’s always some new thing or another you’re pressured to learn, otherwise you’re falling behind. and like you said sometimes the new shiny doesn’t work, either because it was slopped together (was a thing even before AI code) or they changed shit in an update just because, and then you have to spend a bunch of time troubleshooting that instead of actually programming
