> Maybe its really obvious you feel that way and you should find a company that has a product that resonates with you so you don't have to fake it.

Easier said than done. It's not for lack of trying. I apply to lots of companies where I actually think that the project is cool, but they don't respond back to me. At that point, what exactly am I supposed to do? Just completely exhaust all my savings until I find my dream job?

I do really try my best to "get into" whatever the company is doing, but it's exceedingly difficult for me to do that, and it's even harder for me to fake enthusiasm.

> You can but don't be expected to be paid high end tech salaries for it.

That's fair, and maybe I should expect it, but it's still exhausting and I don't have to like it.
