If you get promoted to be a manager there will be even more "crap" to do, since your primary job will be to make it possible for your team to get work done, not to write code yourself. You'll be doing exciting things like resolving disputes between your team members, writing performance reviews, interviewing job candidates, maybe deciding who's going to be laid off and...... listening to your employees ask you for promotions. (I was a manager for many years and then went back to being a developer.)
