Answer

Hi, I'm from the Ukraine. Because of the war I can't work at my previous place of work. My employment contract was suspended. I used to be a chief economist in a bank. I decided to change my profession and go to IT. Now I'm studying at GoIT Coding Academy as a FullStack Developer. I will be looking for a new job.

@veselin_kostov I agree with you Veselin. Though the time you put into your product may shorten, when working in your free time, your productivity can be more as your mind is free from distraction.

Leo Wendler · Answer

Working full time. But I believe it really depends on the business you are building and what stage you are in

Veselin Kostov · Answer

Working full-time myself and dedicating the rest of my free time towards TheWorkSage! :)

Although it has been said that makers should quit their job and fully focus on their product, I believe this has it's pro's and con's.

If you are constantly worried about how you'll pay for your monthly expenses, then I'm sure your productivity will drop.

Hossein Yazdi · Answer

@ztar Hi Tetiana, thank you so much for sharing about your resilience.

It's really disappointing to see how so-called powered nations violently go after smaller nations, despite the modern age we are living in.

Not only we can see how oppressed Ukrainian people are being unjustly attacked, but we have also seen Palestinians, Yemenis, Syrians, Afghanistan, etc. people suffered from unjustifiable attacks in this age - all small and weak countries!

I really hope that there comes a day when the world gets free from injustice and war. 😔 🤲

Be assured that you have stepped into a great field. Wish you the best in your career!

Yeah, working part time. Living like $4000 above the poverty line but I get to spend more time building my business lol. I can't tell you how many pounds of canned tuna I've eaten. Probably should've gotten mercury poisoning by now?
