Re:8 Hard truths I learned when I got laid off from my SWE job by krumpet on Wednesday December 28, 2022 @02:06PM (#34164532)
I was in the exact same situation. What I did was take a web manager job at a non-profit. I run their Wordpress website. It isn't what I was hoping for when I left marketing in the SAAS space, but it's a start and I finally enjoy going to work.

I have complete autonomy in this role and am setting things up so I'm not just managing a WP site, but actually working on the code base and learning as I go.

My thinking is it's better to get paid to learn than grind Leetcode at home (which I did for six long months).
