As the title says, I landed my first role a month ago and still can’t believe I am being paid to write code. It’s been a hobby forever and I fancied upskilling and it actually happened.

I am a relative fuck up and I guess a late bloomer.

    A little bit, absolutely! Not to be too cynical but eventually this feeling will wane a bit. 7yrs in I still think I have a cool/chill job (dev)—and comparatively I make “good” money—but it’s still a job; I don’t code in my free time anymore. Once I’m done for the day I’d rather not look at a screen any more.

    This all said, congrats!!

      I am the same. I used to code all day just silly things. Now not so much.

      I like to walk when not working as work makes me think too much haha.
