WFH has pretty much fried my brain and I can't focus on anything anymore. As I type this right now I have to go complete some very, very basic tasks that have been in my agenda for literally months and I just can't bring myself to do it.

My tip is to not look for exciting jobs like startups, FAGMAN or some other tech frontier companies where they will expect you to work overtime and put a lot of effort.

Don't know much about boot camps, never been to one, but I've heard they are a meme and not worth the money.
If you want IT job without knowing programming look into QA (software testing). You can learn the basics pretty quickly and there are many jobs that will take you for a junior position without experience. It's also a good starting point for a software career, you can learn test automation on the job which teaches you some basic coding and later when you gain experience you can become software dev or business analyst or even project manager.

Company I'm at likes to incentivize self improvement so all job relevant certs/degrees get a pay raise once HR verifies it.
Rate of raise depends on what the cert/degree is but my last cert got me a 8% raise, the one before that got a 3%, and the one before that 5%.

From a tax standpoint it's fully legal (as long as you pay all the taxes of course). As for non-compete clauses you need to either negotiate them out of your contract before you sign it, or just fuck it and take a risk. Unless you tell them you breached it, the chances of companies finding it out is pretty slim, and even then the worst they can do is fire you. You'd have to leak trade secrets or something (and they would have to prove it) in order for them to take you to court, so don't worry about it.

I find out tomorrow I imagine what the future holds for me. If I'm gonna survive the vax culling or what. I think if I can, then my boss won't give a shit if I keep working from home and I'll be looking good. But HR also approves it and they're fucking niggers.

Also do research, a lot of non compete clauses are unenforceable. Especially in CA and WA. Confirm with an employment lawyer just to be sure. If the worst is you get fired if they find out it’s worth it, just don’t be dumb.

Look, I'm really sorry that you're not important or alpha enough to refuse to go back into the office. I moved out of state. I didn't ask my boss, I TOLD him I was moving. If you're productive it shouldn't matter

Never going back, none of my coworkers are either. If they even hint at going back, we'll find work elsewhere, and the managers/c-suite are well aware of this because that's exactly what happened at a consulting firm we work closely with.

It should be a win-win anyway, they don't need to pay out the ass for expensive corporate real estate, etc.

Office was full WFH during the pandemic, I willingly went in every other week for a few hours to get some stuff done that can't be done WFH.
Brought us back into the office a few months back but only 3 days a week now. WFH used to be really comfy but boomer colleagues were bad at hiding how little work they would do WFH so management got stricter. All I really have to do is answer the phone a few times a day though. Occasionally I'll have actual work to do but it's rare. Most WFH days I can just watch videos, cook, play games, go for walks, all that good stuff. Thinking about taking up gardening.

Data analyst. It’s comfy, mentally stimulating, and universally respected by managers.
