Quarter life crisis and a broken sat nav
HOT! RANTHey I just thought I'd reply to your comment as I've taken your advice here: I've decided to get into Web design, partly because of your comment and partly because of reading about MJ's initial starting point of learning Web development in Unscripted being an inspiration, but mostly because it...- bmalc

Quarter life crisis and a broken sat nav
HOT! RANTHaha! Funny you should mention - I'm already doing exactly that! Parents are moving to Portugal and my plan originally was to move with them and find a place for myself there but I don't meet the income requirements. My plan now is to to travel until my savings run out (I should get a few years...- bmalc

Quarter life crisis and a broken sat nav
HOT! RANTThanks for the message MJ! Yep, definitely a good criteria to use, haha I see it all the time in my peer groups, acquaintances etc., and it's very easy to sit on a pedestal and tell yourself 'they're all living in the clouds/bullshitting themselves - not me though, I know I'm going to be...- bmalc

Quarter life crisis and a broken sat nav
HOT! RANTThanks for this all! I will definitely watch that and also have a think about what you've said.. I guess a sort of IT-adjacent industry might be a better shout than starting something totally from scratch.. perhaps I've been too rash in deciding to avoid IT altogether, and maybe something like...- bmalc

Quarter life crisis and a broken sat nav
HOT! RANTThe solution to most of these is just better management to be honest, haha! XD I mean sure there's a few nuggets in there and I'd imagine our little IT company wasn't alone regarding many of these problems, so perhaps there's something in there worth pondering! I'll certainly have a think.. I...- bmalc

Quarter life crisis and a broken sat nav
HOT! RANTHello! Yes I guess in a roundabout way that's sort of what I'm getting at - I want to do something that aligns with my values or interests rather than just 'anything'. Just picking something I don't care about is part of the problem that got me here, as you rightly pointed out RE the...- bmalc

Quarter life crisis and a broken sat nav
HOT! RANTYeah I see your point but I definitely read condescension there.. the flippant rhetorical question, subsequent sarcasm and presumptive comment about my 'cherry picking what I want to hear'. Hard to read anything other than negative tone here, but I see your point that perhaps it was simply a...- bmalc

Quarter life crisis and a broken sat nav
HOT! RANTThanks for sharing :) Where I've mentioned being annoyed at the lack of control and being sick of customers etc. these were just some manifestations of a general apathy towards IT as an industry and towards my old company, rather than the sole reasons I was sick of it. The control problem could...- bmalc

HOT! RANTI didn't 'shoot it down' I simply responded, explaining why I'm not interested in continuing to work in IT? I've obviously considered it in the past, being that I worked for almost a decade in the industry, but decided against it in favour of pursuing something completely new and fresh - pretty...- bmalc

Quarter life crisis and a broken sat nav
HOT! RANTWhat a strangely hostile and condescending reply to a reasonable statement Dude if I'm choosing a path/business to start in my life, I'm going to want to have at least some interest in it. Done IT for nearly a decade, so I've been there, done that and got the T shirt - time for something new. ♂️- bmalc

Quarter life crisis and a broken sat nav
HOT! RANTThanks for the reply! So the reason for steering away from the IT side of things is that I just want to do something totally different. I'm sick of the world of IT as a whole and am eager to dive into something that's completely new for me. Agreed on the rest of your points though! Haven't...- bmalc
