IT.

Injured out of infantry and poored out of college but landed a shitty little ISP job. Started one to beat that one, because they were sleazy like used-car salesmen. Left embezzling biz-partner to do coding-adjacent job in NJ and stop being startup-poor. Kept working. Fast forward.

I only regret I was unable to use my skills to relo for new jobs farther away like some of my peers.

This sounds like a reeeeeally bad company doing shit work. Toronto? Which (pub)cloud is Canadian, anyway?
