    This was me failing out of my first programming job. College was crappy (forced to go to christian college) and I got effectively a 'script kiddy’s degree instead of a real software engineering degree. Tried to fake it till I make it with my first real job, got fired ended up in a significantly less technical IT job instead.

      Oof, that’s rough. Nobody knows how to program without doing it though. Even senior people forget systems they haven’t worked with in a while. You could always do some side projects, or freelancing, and then return to coding when you’re up to speed. Finding another job should be trivial with a CS degree and a portfolio of projects.
