Tough spot.. Maybe tell us a bit more about your background (location, salary, work conditions, relationship, responsibilities, also social life etc..). As maybe there is more then just the job which is bothering you? (2 hours of commute a day would make me hate >90% of jobs) If you are really sure it's the job, my suggestions would be to try to save as much as possible the next 5-6 months, quit your job, live frugal as long as you can and explore other options and then decide to pursue what makes you happy the most. Also, how 'hard' is your work? I know plenty of developers who only work 5-10hrs a week at their day job and are busy with other stuff while working. So if you can, use that time to plan ahead. For me also, I kind of dislike my job (but I'm paid extremely well at my age, don't have much alternative, have obligations, have in general a very very good life so I don't really care of one aspect which is my job) but I just do it because I have to and don't mind after all compared to the rewards. Would much rather be a farmer, but then again, I wouldn't want to give up my comfortable life or get back problems in 20 years of now. So maybe you are not that bad off after all? |
