The work blues

I am reaching the typical 2-3yr working blues.

I am wondering what to do... I think what I need is to change my job inside the company somehow.  Learn something new... do something totally different.  I wonder if I can move into an Equities Tech role or get a job as a developer again.

Thats what people often do, get promoted and stuff and manage a big team like I'm doing now, then take a step back down (and keep the salary!) and just be a developer.  Sometimes it works, sometimes you get fired cause you are overpaid, and sometimes you return to being a manager later.

Either way I am thinking come Jan/Feb if the job market is better I may consider an intra-company move...  need some change.

Though if I have a baby or dog, then this role is great!!
