Thanks for the honesty. While I can also agree with you I'm also still look for something that is fulfilling. I made a bad example of that to be disrespectful of the current state I'm in. that not really fair of me. But its also fair to say its not been healthy either. I'm sure again I'm not saying anything exclusive to tech per say.

That's awesome! It's completely normal to be dissatisfied. But what you're facing, you're likely to face in other industries also. I, too, thought that I had a deep dislike for tech. But when I got a better job, I realized how fulfilling programming can be when your core focus is on actually coding, not navigating the bureaucracy and how far you can grow when you're constantly challenged. Your post does indicate you like programming to an extent. So maybe autonomy is something you can try to fix.
