I've been looking at IBEW and the path of pursuing electrical as an alternative now that software development seems to have dried up entirely and need to find something less volatile. Haven't pulled the trigger yet though, because software was such a natural path originally, it's a little intimidating to go back to school and I have no idea what the trades are like. Got the time though, nearing a full year since being laid off and seems like it'll be another if I don't do something else.
It also seems naive to think I'd be capable of becoming an electrician or succeeding in trades, but might be worth a shot.
