I’m a depressed web developer who’s hypothetically thinking about a possible career change. The issue is I live in a rural area. I’m wondering what kind of new career paths would be available to me out in the country? Two I can possibly think of would be a welder and construction, but I have no idea beyond that. Plus there’s the plethora of things I could possibly do online that Inhave no idea about.
I will most likely just stay as a work from home web developer, so don’t worry too much about me. But still wondering what possible alternatives there are out there, if anybody has any ideas they wouldn’t mind sharing.
I also realize that “rural” might not be specific enough, but I don’t want to get any more specific than that for privacy reasons.
When I left IT and changed careers, I became a tree surgeon for a while and then a wildlife ranger, which I stuck with for 20-odd years.
It has to be said that you need a particular motivation to work as a ranger though - at least in the UK. You certainly don’t get into it for the money.
