You are looking in completely the wrong place and not even considering using the skills and experience you have gained so far.Originally posted by juststarting View PostHi ,
I have done infrastructure work , what not in Microsoft. I don't program at all but I am very techy and can pick up coding skills in a few months.
Is there a market for home work other than coding ? Something related to IT of course..
You should be looking at moving into solution design and architecture, not programming. Plenty of documentation you can do from home, strategy, position papers, architectural documentation, etc, etc, etc.
So, look at something like TOGAF, look to see what skills and experience you need against what you have, and work out a plan how to get there.
Oh yeah - the money is pretty good too!!
All IMHO of course...Older and ...well, just older!!Comment

If you can do your work from home, unless you're outstanding, so can someone in India or some other country.
While there is a medium-term time window in which such work still exists, as communication improves (both with people and with technology) such work will dry up.
IMHO, of course.Hard Brexit now!
