Long story short, I was a mechanic for 12 years but then I got hurt. Career over. I started learning C++, made little games, it was fun so I kept going. I settled my workers comp claim, the check should be arriving soon.
Right now I am relearning algebra 2 to get ready to take pre-calculus, then start WGU online. I can afford to work on this degree full time, not have to work, and have zero debt at the end.
I believe in myself and I believe that I can get the degree, but the last couple weeks I have been reading a lot about offshoring and AI. It also seems like developers in general are against unionization for whatever reason. Reading about all that is pretty scary. I’m on the edge of stopping.
I guess what I’m wondering is, is there anything that makes finding a job easier?
