justinhj, would you mind to tell what you did and what you do now? Did you prepare the move or was it painless to find a different position?

I also don't want a management position and plan a technological move. Are you happy with what you did?

I used to write animation, physics and AI code for video games. I got the point where I was just moving company to company and writing the same system. What I moved into was still video game related but server side. This way I had to learn a whole new set of skills and a new knowledge domain, which brought challenge back to the job. But in addition I had been changing as a person, and I fit in better with server guys and execs than game devs.
