As the title says, I landed my first role a month ago and still can’t believe I am being paid to write code. It’s been a hobby forever and I fancied upskilling and it actually happened.
I am a relative fuck up and I guess a late bloomer.

Thank you.
Late bloomers unite.
I too was unprepared for life as my mother was unprepared herself and thus the cycle continues.
I guess we can only do what we can do. I was blessed with boundless curiosity, even if it took a few decades to aim that at something useful.
Yes, bountiful curiosity can help you to find a better path. I finally received my PhD at 38 only to discover that my family thought it was a waste of time, especially if I wanted to do research. Because research is worthless. I just wish I had understood more when I was raising my kids so I could prepare them better. They swear to me that they are ok despite my laisez faire parenting.
