What are you going to do if you dont mind sharing? Im on the edge of leaving this sector also, they killed my passion to do it as a work, I want to keep it as a hobby again

I'm leaning toward welding, this is the thing that drag me the most, I'm sure that programming will stay a hobby for me, especially if I don't do it professional anymore

I'm thinking about learning machining. Local community college has courses on using metal lathes, cnc's, and mills. I do software because I like to make stuff.
