Cold calling telemarketing ("Do you have time to answer some questions about x?"). Felt grotty with every call (got yelled at a lot too, be nice to people who call they likely don't want to call you any more than you want to receive the call), lasted 2-weeks.

Swapped out to data entry of paper responses into a spreadsheet, was so much better but only lasted 2 days before I went back to the phones. Am verg grateful I don't have to do that any more.

This seems like a potential infinite loop because Jason has JavaScript which has JSON which has....

I mean all technology terms welcome, I didn't consider them before. I don't know if Kubernaughts is the right term for K8s practicioners but I suspect it should be.

Or perhaps JSters (pronounced Jesters)*

*Meant as a turn of phrase and not a criticism of the language.

I wanted to learn and I do that best by making games (find it holds my attention), found it a mixed bag, in that Bevy is quickly becoming the de-facto game engine in Rust (I know not strictly true but it is very popular), however that involves learning Bevy, rather than Rust.

So instead recently I've started making games with Yew (Web lib, using WASM) and Warp, to get to grips with those. I've been doing a game dev live stream too, where I work on a project (FOSS) to try and show the stuff I learned. Mostly just for the enjoyment of solving maths problems with an audience!

Sadly when I was laid off last year I couldn't find anything in Rust but I'm hoping my next contract might involve at least some.
