Am I the only one who likes his job?
I was working for 10+ years in media creation without a proper education in that field. With 37 I changed everything and did an 3 year apprenticeship. 3 days working and 2 days school (with others around half my age). And now I work as a Web developer in the same small company (9 people) and couldn’t be happier. We do only WebDev and no design or marketing. Ok, maybe a tiny amount of design and marketing.
Many of our clients like that we are more technical than the regular webdesign agency.
I have at least 30 days vacation, nice office in the middle of the city and a rather medium pay but if there is no emergency or time critical project, I can go to my boss and say: “I’m bored. I take the afternoon off.”
I won’t get rich working there, but the fact that I look forward for my work and know work drama only by stories of others, is worth it for me.
And that it’s just 10min by foot from apartment to office is nice too.
I’m so grateful that I am so lucky to find the right job and company.
