I recently got a job that seems like its going to work out well. I could be making way more money, 2-3x as much, but I decided pretty early that I'm not going to make missiles. This is way below my skill level and isn't challenging in the slightest, but its a good change of pace. Was happily unemployed for a long time but its time I get back to routine and it feels great having money coming in instead of just out. I'm going to chill with it it for a good while and start applying to those niche jobs that I'm perfect for and pay a lot. Or I'm going to start a business with a buddy or two.

Congrats! Sounds like you have some determination and a stable financial situation.

Thanks but I am genuinely just stumbling through life and somehow it works out instead of me being homeless. Idk how shit works out but I feel like I don't deserve it.

You do deserve it. Everybody deserves a stable living condition :)
