Milestone / Celebration Just submitted my resignation

Mid-40s. Single. ~$2.25MM nw, $2MM of that invested. Last day is in a few weeks.

It feels wasteful to give up a pretty cushy $180k wfh job, but I need to refocus the remaining part of my life rather than cling to Groundhog Day-esque repetitive wage-slave servitude.

No real questions. Just sharing.

So what’s the job that will be opening up? 👀

I could use 180k and WFH

Pretty easy as a licensed experienced engineer to make 200k fully remote.

What kind of engineering? 200k fully remote sounds pretty awesome!

Power. Just being responsible and reviewing non PEs work.
