I have an interesting job:
I provide business intelligence for health services.
It requires my CS degree to perform the analysis and make reports people can understand.
It requires the whole of my brain because I have to learn a whole new industry and know it better than many of the players - because I have to know not only what one hospital does but how other hospitals do it differently.
It is constantly varying, because once you produce analysis, it's a few button presses to repeat it in subsequent years, so you have the time for future creativity.
It gives me a "warm cosy feeling" because I'm doing my part to save lives, and most people in the industry are here to do it too.
I hope you find something you want to do. I had the feeling I didn't want to "write code all day". I decided that meant for me that I didn't want a coding job, despite, as people say, the coding being only a small proportion of a day's activities.
Unless you are interested in an IT for IT company career, try picking an industry specialty.
E.g.
Finance, with accounting / economics selection, or
Health Care, with health management,
Mining, with resource management,
the list goes on...

My preferred method is to go down to Single Origin Roasters and have them do it for me. Anyone else in Surry Hills in Sydney agree?
