Hey all. I work in IT and the job market is terrible. I’m not too sure what to do. I was thinking of getting into dsta science stuff, but I don’t know how to get there or what options I have. Any advice would be great.

I can confirm this is an excellent plan. Anecdotal as it is, I traded a fast-paced job with great people and terrible management for a slower-paced job working on things that do not interest me at all, with excellent peers and fantastic management. The change in working environment (and recognition of WFH as work) has made a huge difference.
My pay cut was 3% initially, but the rate increases of the new job has outpaced that of the old, and it’s a few percent in my favour now. I’m pleased and relieved, and I hope its boring self can continue for a few years while I derive satisfaction and joy from interactions at work, and accomplishments and leisure outside of work.
