I've almost been getting upset with engineering as my career because I really enjoy doing it, but am absolutely exhausted with doing it at work that I can never bring myself to do it at home. All my hobby PCB designs or programming projects take a back seat because they require a lot of time and thought.
It really is a shame that STEM pays so highly that it may as well be a requirement if you're not going to do trades or something with a boatload of overtime attached to it.
