Default Having a difficult time deciding what to do with my life.

I'm 20 years old, I work part-time in a restaurant while I'm in school but decided to drop the program because I am so incredibly uninterested that I couldn't bother going anymore. It was a 2 year Mechanical Engineering Technician program that basically prepped people to become Machinist and Millwright apprentices. I hate hard work/manual labor so this wasn't for me. I'm considering switching to the 2 year Civil Engineering Technician program because it seems more interesting. But then I just randomly thought of the fact I'm on my computer most of the day so why not have a career that involves computers. I'll be honest, I don't know much about programming or computers. I don't game, I don't do anything but be a part of multiple automotive forums but these jobs don't require heavy lifting or getting dirty and having a bad back when I'm 40.

So I was curious if any of you have taken computer programming in college. They offer a three year Computer Programmer Analyst program at the college I'm currently attending (I'm Canadian btw) and I took a basic programming course in high school and didn't mind it that much, but that was 4 years ago. I'm going to start working full-time until September but I really need to get my shit together fast...

TLDR: I want to hear about what you guys do for a living, what you made out of college and how much you're making now(you can PM me this info if you'd like), how easy it was to get a job in the field and if what they taught you in college was related to the job you currently have.

I honestly appreciate any information given.
