Up to now it’s been rough. But I’ve been worse.

I’m able to WFH and I’m in a spacious sunny place which helps a lot. Also, I’m not alone as I live with my partner. However, provided that lots of startups are laying off people, there’s be a slight chance that I would be laid off too. That’s OK as I am a staunch believer that job security does not exist.

But It’s really hard to be calm with all that’s happening all over the world, and with some family members living abroad, in countries where the pandemic is hitting very hard. That’s the worst part.

Also, coping that your stack of choice is rather undervalued and rather "old", makes it appealing to learn new stacks/languages, but hard to land jobs using these new ones. Adding up the fact that there's no such thing as job security, and that maybe I would be fired given the situation, puts the stress up.

I'll keep up anyhow, because I enjoy my work, and I'm willing to get better.

Hey. I've been lurking HN for years, and just made an account to reply this.

There's a way. Reach out to anybody or me if you need it. You were able to build a stellar resume. You did GH projects with thousands of users. You have experience.

You got this.
