currently in bay area. quit 10 months ago because of health reasons. 110% better now, thank goodness i've mostly done lifecycle software engineering for the last 10 years (python c++ javascript). I rarely got to develop features; happened a couple times in the last year. I enjoyed bug fixing but it's such a rare position to find. i've gotten a few interviews, more coming. i've never gotten a job through a referral. i don't really know anybody but going to meetups is on the agenda. does meetup.com even work anymore? not sure how that works, tho...social anxiety+cptsd+autism makes it so difficult. how do you even find 'mentors' ? no one has ever helped me like that, it's inconceivable. I've been grinding leetcode more, and am getting better ( dont have to look at answers as much), studying SD question/answers. working on side projects that are technical enough But i'm so scared i wont ever find another job. im thinking of just going to trucking school, but i like software a lot.
