I have a decade of experience and a masters degree.

Devoted the best parts of my life to 50-60 hour weeks in tech.

Im about to go work at an Amazon warehouse.

Tech is basically over now.

Can you elaborate? Are you taking this decision willingly or are being forced to because you can't clear interviews?
Based on the doomer tone, it was probably the latter.
Lol gotta get interviews to fail them
I delivered pizzas and worked as a cook to stretch a gap before. You can keep applying while at the warehouse. Market is rough right now, I quit a well paying remote job where I was on a good career track and I'm kicking myself right now. I expect to find something by March next year and will probably liquidate my valuables to stretch.
