I am not yet 50, but near, and this is so depressing. I have no job now, and I have no idea if I ever will.

Does anyone have any recommendations for careers for over 50 women who cannot nurse? (Not coding, either. I have 25 years in software, and I can't get hired anywhere)

What general part of the world you live? I’ve noticed that ageism in tech is less prevalent on the East and Midwest of the US than the west coast. The west coast in general is shitty towards women and definitely older women. The fact that people uphold this shitty place as some bastion of women’s rights is hilarious.
