Fixed working hours, no travel, maturing tech industry provides job stability. Job involves managing smart techies and making them address customer concerns whenever they escalate (not report!) a problem. People management, smooth talking, and Microsoft powerpoint/excel skills are good enough to keep you going for years. You are NOT required to solve technical problems. Access to internet and a competent technical team gives you plenty of free time which you can utilize for financial investing or for your retraining needs!
Readers, what do you think? Is this a bulls**t job?
