Well, just a single example, but I got into the field because I was passionate about it. A decade later, most of that's gone, beaten out of me on the altar of scrum ceremonies and endless product churn. I do my job and go home.

What do you wish you did instead? I hate meetings too, but programming pays a lot more than the other career I considered 20 years ago. (electrician)

There's nothing. I don't get the massive united states pay, but I do well. I just can't be bothered to love it anymore. It's a job.

Just an aside, electricians are thriving in this economy.
