Java will take you far. Look into golang or python for coding jobs. Personally I smoke too much and dont have a passion for coding. I have found program/product managers and scrum masters in the agile world to be complete bullshit positions. Unfortunately I am waay to technical so I am more of a fellow

this. got my engineering degree but leveraged into project management and it’s so fucking easy. i get paid 6 figs to do fuck all. sometimes work picks up but it’s like perspective. i only work maybe 10 hours a week if even that. phone call here, email there. i don’t even have my PMP yet which would bump up my worth and get my more job opportunities. kinda thinking about looking for a second easy wfh to make it like 20 hours of work a week with like 200k total compensation.

There is an insane amount of variance in modern office jobs. I work in the government as an 'analyst'. I use SQL and VBA to do various things with different data but ultimately I really spend less than 3-4 hours a week doing actual core programming. The rest is just managing data files, sending e-mails, a few meetings, running automated scripts, etc. which obviously doesn't take the rest of the time. Since most projects are not immediate short term things I don't really have super hard deadlines. Sometimes an odd request is urgent but it's typically manageable. I make a bit over 100k a year since our department is all classified as senior analysts. I used to make half of what I do keeping up with deadlines making sure a timekeeping system is working properly while constantly taking calls for requests around our system. It was stressful as shit.

My point is, at the end of the day your quality of life is going to be hugely dependent on your job which doesn't necessarily equate the quality of life of similar types of jobs. It's all just a clusterfuck depending on huge amounts of variables in your department/org/sector.

If you want to break in but have no education or creds, look for temp listings at local schools/unis. They'll hire anyone with an HS diploma as a temp and if you spend a year on the job and prove that you know your shit they won't care about the paper.

Business intelligence/analytics, finance, accounting, software and data engineering, code monkey work, data analytics, project management, UX, recruiting/HR, marketing, list goes on.

Just think about anything that is white collar and oriented towards operations or development and not direct leadership, networking, or social skills, or requiring you to be on site in any way. Your skills are your leverage to be able to WFH. Also don't be an autist and stay on people's good side. Have interesting things to talk about and gain people's respect. Good reputation is leverage as well.
