Good for you for hanging in there. 2 years is not long at all considering it takes the average person at least 6 to 8 years to get an education and build any kind of career.

When I made the decision to switch I planned 3 years but life got in the way and eventually it took me 5 years before I was there. People sometimes comment 5 years is a long time to achieve your goals and I always answer that doing something you don't enjoy for 40 years is a lot longer.
