My former co-worked, software developer, became manager at the retailer network Tesco :) It solved the interaction with people problem for him.

How's the pay there? My biggest concern about leaving IT is that the salaries we get as developers are pretty generous compared to other fields.
Is the pay more important then your wish to have more interaction with people?
The issue is that from what I can see the people-oriented jobs I could get in my area (as in, they don't require lots of experience or education) would barely allow me to afford rent, so as much as I'd like to it's just not possible at the moment.
Not the OP, but when you have children good pay is essential.
