Using My Expertise
Why does taking a break need to mean exiting IT? IT is what fascinates me. The things that fatigue me are the insane political decisions that make it difficult for me to do my job well in IT or the regulatory and project priorities that make it difficult to take care of the embedded break/fix operations that I need to take care of. A break from some of this corporate emotion and frustration could mean working as a consultant, an auditor or a sales engineer and serving the customer for while. This is probably idealistic, but it seems that traditional corporate IT is the source of frustration, not the technology field itself.
