In May, I was let go without warning and without reason (not a downsizing, they had just hired half a dozen people and still had open reqs.) I've been on the job market since and still haven't had an offer.
While I continue the search, I've built and deployed some pet projects (nothing I can turn into a business) and gained a bit of experience in some new things like game dev (Godot, Unity ... even Play Date.) I'm double apping with Door Dash and Uber Eats to keep some cash flowing, but it's not tenable long term.
Maybe I just don't know what the market wants. I'm fluid and flexible, I can build systems that are long-term stable and maintainable, I can get to know that bespoke stack in short order. What should I be doing to land some work?
