Your premise is wrong, but still I'm curious what other kind work you think I'd be good enough at that to be worth somebody hiring me. Maybe it's something that I lump together with programming, such as teaching programming, or combining&packaging software tools to make applications, or building an information database, or maintaining documentation, but which you treat separately. Or maybe it's some line of work that hasn't occurred to me. .
