I love my job and can’t picture myself in another career but it does suck after being told that this field was the most stable career
Who told you that? AFAIK that was definitely never true about computer tech jobs.
Can vouch, everyone told me growing up that computer jobs were a safe and stable choice because "everyone needs computers."
It's definitely a good choice. And there will always be jobs. But job security is pretty minimal.
