Have you ever come back to a company after leaving (e.g. a few years later)? How did it go? (lemmy.zip)

I worked at the same company for almost exactly 12 years, I was so burned out that I didn't just leave to a similar role, I changed fields. After a year and a half I was nearly broke and went back to my abusive ex, despite a healthy pay bump I left again after a year and haven't done anything tech related since.

I have tuck-driving as my plan B.

That's a good plan, I've had my CDL since 2008 and drove a snow plow the last 2 winters. Someone's always looking for a truck driver.
