Time off really fast, a blink of an eye has been working for three years on the job development because the issue of age, and now have to think a career change
1. The motives and reasons for the development of a career change
When the original graduation, too naive, teacher recommended that the work is not very good, it gave up the chance to enter the system. High-spirited young heart, feel that their future is, that the work of 2--3 years, they can get into the first Internet companies. I recently Ali terms of employment, how he is desperate. The Prime Minister was himself think is a problem, start small businesses work, how can catch up in mature companies who block progress, small business norms immature, moving bricks are living, there is no time to learn, even if they sacrifice time to rest You can learn things very difficult to practice in their work and floor. After three years of work, I did not feel up to the results to be achieved when a career change. Cool thinking, objective analysis, if you enter the system, their current state is also not good to go, with their own personality and the ability, in particular to the introverted, poor communication skills. Career change can be said is his own escape character flaws and poor communication skills problem. One thing, from the switch to now, I have always felt and believed that I like to write code. In school, most objectionable is the relationship, ugly in Evaluating Projects, see the value of their work, and this program sharp contrast, when the code is written, the program up and running, is not that sense of achievement describe. I think this is the main reason I switch to it.
Overall a career change because, to escape his own shortcomings; proud and arrogant, does not meet the mentor arrangements; there she was more like coding, professional dissatisfaction with what they are learning, self-actualization needs.
2. After the switch to the working state
Graduated the first year, in a small company for eight months, eight months this should be the darkest time of my life during the day and write code in the company, in the evening at home reading a book, in order to complete a development task, due to anxiety and insomnia at night, during because communication problems, and leadership quarrel once, the overall feeling is not their own technology, the company can not provide a good platform. March the following year and decisive departure, after leaving the problem worse, can not find work, looking for work in the month and a half, learning efficiency is extremely low, not anxious all day, feeling himself had depression. Later still came to a small company, the company gave the wages are not high, but a little better, that is, more free time, a weekend day weekend, their product has not been on the line, in the company more than a year, work problems colleagues technical background is weak, an interface to engage in a long time, I can have fun handsome pot, there is the boss wants me to design bear up under his own insistence, nothing about it, this time biggest gain of the front end of basic reading classic books, "JavaScript advanced programming" "ES6" "data structures and algorithms" "JavaScript language essence" "the Definitive Guide and CSS3 html5". Also take some detours during the middle learned C # and java, as well as learn more theory, but the lack of practice. In the work we have been trying to apicloud vue introduced species, but in the end did not complete, with only a single file references. The first three years went to an outsourcing company, wages doubled. Currently the company is to do after six months, slowly found its own limitations, used in the work is relatively old technology, to complete the work, but there is no power in-depth study, interested in new technologies, but did not always practice Opportunity. There is technically no way to reach a level architect, come to the stage management positions, front-end TL so hard to do, their own ability to communicate has been a short board.
3. older programmers go from here
Recent thinking about a career change, consider a lot, it still felt within the system to better, is a civil servant, another option is a teacher, civil servant relationships is that I no passing a ridge, teachers need communication and expression, I think this can get over. So now the best choice for teachers, followed by civil servants. Work within the system, a stable, have a lot of time to develop hobbies, take care of his family. Still work within the system where this can go to know almost search, know almost anonymous on many state answer with students within the system now is almost the same. Wages plane is not high, but the small overhead, high-fund post, more idle time, the most important point is that the older the more popular, high cost, and no matter how the future changes, companies will certainly not stabilize the country this big machine. Action is needed to change jobs, you first need to overcome their own shortcomings, exam Teacher, these will take time, I hope to be able to complete a career change within two years.

A young man will not believe that he is the future being laid off older programmers, age, years rubbed off the edges and corners of all of us, I hate had become a man (a conservative, always indecisive). Thirty is a very interesting split point, you find yourself not your ideal one percent of that class of people, but you have disdain and unknown 99%. You have two choices, either to accept their fate or to fight, how to fight, continue on the professional Cobb, dissatisfaction with the current work, change jobs. Life goes on! Come on! tomorrow
