I was never happier than when I had a job where I felt like I was helping people and solving interesting problems. Unfortunately I've never found anything like that that pays well enough to reach my financial goals and in general it seems those kinds of jobs are constantly being enshittified. Currently my job mostly involves coordinating work other teams are doing with users, waiting for shit to be done days/weeks or questions answered, and then dealing with the aftermath of their mistakes. It fucking sucks. I just want to be on the ground again where the only person's work I'm responsible for is me.
