I'd been programming for about 20 years, but it wasn't fun anymore, and it had become a drag that I wanted to get away from. I recently (end of last year) applied to (and got hired at) a teaching position at the school I got my own degree from (they're programming and related courses, so it's relevant to my experience). This is something I had promised myself a good decade ago and I finally made good on it. I used to hate leaving the house to sit in an office, and wanted to work from home. Now it's a classroom, and I love being there and having this role. It's everything I hoped it would be, I honestly couldn't be happier.
