Well, this is me.
12 years ago I did this to myself - voluntarily.
I quit a job in Sales Management (national responsibility and a large staff) and took a job as a bartender in a casino. I now work prime-time in the casino’s premier restaurant.
I’ve never been happier.
I am seriously looking at taking some night classes in a trade since I don't know how well my company will be in the coming future. There have been some very disturbing signs for the short term. The electrician type stuff appeals to me the most out of what I see. There is a small engine rebuilders class too. I haven't torn into an engine in about 20 years though. At times I miss turning a wrench and loathe technology.
