Yeah, like the bird.
In less than two weeks I'm starting a software development course that lasts for 16 weeks and actually gives me a recognised qualification at the end of it. I'll probably let you all know how it is going in here as I progress. Doing some prework at the moment and it's going alright so far.

My salary has been so low for a while that even at the lowest end of junior dev roles I'd be getting a 25% raise so being off work unpaid for all of it and a bit after is worth it within like a year.

Plus it's worth it in other ways like not being on night shift and not changing shift times and other quality of life improvements. Hopefully.

Just finished my first week of the bootcamp I'm on. They told us that of the cohort that just graduated before us only 6 of them haven't had a job offer. So something like 75% of them had a job within a week of finishing the course. wtf
