Re: I'm thinking about a lot more than this
I'm very sorry to hear that you (and apparently many others) are disillusioned by your career in IT.
At the risk of making myself unpopular, I've spent the last 30 years designing and developing commodity trading systems, and I still love it.
Even if I inherited millions from a mysterious benefactor I'd still code just for fun.
Would be interested to know how many developers are disillusioned compared to infrastructure, desktop support, operations, etc.
