If I were to transition from software engineering, I'd prioritize a role that meets the following criteria:

  1. Minimizes screen time and doesn't rely heavily on computers for productivity.

  2. Allows me to disconnect after work without constant notifications or calls.

  3. Offers stability, requiring minimal adaptation to new trends or technologies.

  4. Lastly,  and more importantly, not easily replaceable by AI in the near future.

Something that fits all of that is a career as a professional athlete. Are you any good at golf? ;)
