[QUOTE="beentheredonethat, post: 947874, member: 4886"] Lifer, I do agree with what you said about managing people. I've had various jobs where I managed people from PT hourlies and supvs, to FT admins, to FT technicians and specialists to FT Supvs. I can do the job, and I've done the job well. I had to at times discipline people, one person I had to terminate. However, although I can do it, and did it well. It wasn't a job that I considered fun. When I had that job, it was a job. I'm now in a job that I really like, it's at a mgr level and I have no one directly reporting to me. I realize that if I want to go to the next level, it will be 100% going back to managing people. Truthfully, the money isn't worth it to me. I'd much rather enjoy the job I'm doing and getting paid OK for it, vs getting more money and not enjoying my job. When a person makes a career decision, they have to think about that too. After all, people entering the work force will be working for 40 years or so. It won't be fun if they have a job they don't enjoy, even if they can do it well. [/QUOTE]
