Over the last 10 years, my job has migrated from "getting stuff done with a well qualified local team" to "work round the clock trying to get poorly trained, ill paid off shore teams to produce the same kind of work". The teams are in Europe and Asia.

Since I have to stay on top of these teams, I find myself doing the European teamwork from 4am to about 10am my time, then I have my own work to do, then I have to catch the guys in Asia after 11pm my time. The whole thing has completely wrecked any sense of family/life balance I used to have.

It's time for a change but where in the IT world can you work just ONE timezone these days, keep fairly decent hours (I'd be willing to do 50-60 hours per week, but really, 90-100 on a regular basis is too much) and still earn a decent living that sustains a family of 4?
