Is It Crazy to Ditch a Stable IT Job for Something Real? 🤔
I’m 25, married, no kids, and by most standards, I should be happy. My wife and I bring in over $9k a month after taxes, and our savings are solid. But honestly? I’m so tired of staring at screens all day as a sys admin. Five years in IT, and I feel like I’m just pushing pixels around with barely any human interaction.
The weird part? I recently visited a friend in the hospital and found myself jealous of the nurses. Sure, their job is tough, but at least it feels meaningful. My wife’s a teacher and comes home fulfilled. Meanwhile, I’m just fixing tickets and automating tasks that no one cares about.
I could afford to go back to school, maybe even try nursing or something with real purpose. But the fear of leaving a stable job in this economy is real. Am I crazy for wanting out, or is it normal to crave more than just a paycheck? Would love to hear your thoughts. 😅
