I heard a very similar story about Kent Beck's father. We also interviewed a couple superstar candidates at my company that somehow never progressed through. I'm just about 45 now, though I'm still able to pass as in my 30's for a while still. But I'm trying to plan for a future where I'm boxed out of doing a job I'm very good at. This seems like an easy competitive advantage and hiring edge, not sure why some haven't really taken it on. |

I thought about it, but, in my case, I hated being a manager, and founding something like that would have taken a lot of non-technical, manager-style work.
In my current position, I am mentoring, but in a much less "official" capacity, and I'm very "hands-on" technical.
