Not just my job, but the entire industry I'm in. I get paid really well, and I like some of the fine details, but overall I don't like it. My skill-set isn't very transferable either.

I can relate. The course I took before graduating opened up a lot of job opportunities I realized went against my morals due to how corrupt the industries are, and what I ended up choosing just happened to be a more advanced version of something simple I did from my childhood.

My degree was what seemed like fun. At the time I didn't think of any long term implications. I still think the details could be fun if it was a novel challenge. But yea, my personal philosophy doesn't really align with my work.
