It sounds like you need a career plan.

Where do you want to be in 5 years?

In the pub. Sheesh

[alreadypacked]

I just reduce my hours

Ha. I'll be retired (from IT) in 2 years unless I acquire some kids.

What do you plan to do after IT?

What is this 'plan' word you seem obsessed with?

What do you plan to do after IT?

I won't be doing a serious career if that's what you mean. But I will work because I think that discipline is good for me. Mainly I will live off rental income and focus my energy on low stress, more spiritually rewarding activities. I might get a job as a careers adviser - I wish I had career advice when I was young. Outside of work, further study - for fun, advance my foreign language studies, pick up my guitar again, write small software apps and try and sell them - for fun, spend more time with my family, spend more daylight hours interacting with people instead of machines. I would like to become self-sustaining in terms of food: grow and catch my own.

What country?

I think you have missed the boat on that one for about 70% of the world.

More than likely I will be based in the southern med.

Sometimes if I feel stuck in a contract, I think of where I am going next. Then I stop feeling stuck, more on my way to somewhere else.
