Technical or Management (or both)? Which are you?

[Francko]

Done both in the past.

Now I'm a BA so do neither

Sorry for swearing

Yeah, being a BA is the best option. No hassle from managers, don't need to hassle anybody else, don't even need to do any work in most cases, just have to let techies do the analysis and cut/paste their comments into a nicely formatted document (of course, taking off the personal insults from the remarks).

What does a tester do exactly?

Break stuff and send invoices.
