Thanks, it’s good to hear from the other side, I hope it is as you say and it keeps working out for you.

I’m luck to have good people with me and some savings behind me so it’s just a case of keeping my head up and keeping on.

I worked in planning, I won’t say for who as I can’t other than to new employers based on the package I got.

It’s a field very close to being replaced by AI, if it gets to a point where it understands employees propensity to work different patterns and times then it will just replace people.

Hence I’m looking to now change careers before that happens, but starting again after more than 15 years is harder than I thought and I thought it would be hard.

As somebody who got made redundant last week and is facing the shit heap of a job market right now.

Yes, be thankful if you have a job.

I can’t say I love the terminal, if there’s a GUI for a task I’ll use that but there comes a time in every troubleshooting session where the terminal is just the only way to do something reliably.

I’m not going to lie though, I forget commands constantly so have to search the most basic shit to type in.
