Title: While I am a software developer, somehow the thought of working for another company depresses me a lot at the moment. I guess ultimately I enjoy thinking about concepts more than the actual programming. Programming is a means to an end to realize my ideas. But programming for another company would mean programming for programming's sake. (Just trying to understand why the thought depresses me so much).<p>And yet, I need money. I wish I could think of any other way to earn minimum living expenses than developing. I'd love to just work in a cafe or a book shop for a couple of days, but I worry that it might not pay well enough.<p>Part time developer jobs are also hard to come by (which would leave me time to work on my own projects, hopefully alleviating my depression).<p>Maybe somebody here has ideas for a middle road?<p>It would also be great to work not sitting at a desk all the time.
