Are you willing to take a pay cut?

No? Why would I? Like to what end?
> I hate it and think about leaving every day
most people hate their jobs; some people are just lucky enough that their jobs compensate them well enough for the emotional labor as well as the physical labor. also i have worked other SWE jobs (as already mentioned) and i've hated them all.
You can also not hate your job and be paid fairly well for it
Didn't I just tell you that I've hated every swe job I've had? Are you proposing I become a baker or what?
Would being a baker make you happy? Because this conversation makes me feel like you are one of those guys who is like "if I was a baker I will join the permanent underclass which means I cannot be happy doing that either"
