Pushing bits into a computer qualifies as tech? I guess....
Felt disillusioned a few times, changed jobs when that happened.
40+ years in electronics, from TV tx systems, RF systems, computer repair (pre-PC), electrical work, and mechanics as a bench tech, test engineer, mfg engineer, NPI engineer. Occasionally pushing bits in to board processors and PCs. Hacking h/w and s/w in odd ways. Later doing configuration control and change orders for tech companies working with tier 1 international factories. Worked with marketing, artists, IT, product mangers, purchasing, fabricators, contractors and spent ~ 4-8 years in meetings..Saw the rise of dilbert from spot on humorous, to disturbingly predictive, to not funny anymore as my job looked like it.
Retired a few years ago, consulting a bit, enjoying playing with arduinos and at-tiny85s, and volunteering.
