    Whenever I meet another web dev, they either have a job as a web dev, they’re looking for a job as a web dev, or they’re trying to create a startup. There are no hobbyists.

      I actually know one web dev (experienced, front-end) who has two kids and is transitioning to driving truck after getting laid off earlier in the year.

      He’s got his straight-body license, and is working up to tractor-trailer. He just fixes things under the table and drives around, plows snow, etc. I’ve never seen him happier.

      One of us got out 😌 he’s free now
