Find remote work. You can work in solitude (as is natural) and collaborate asynchronously (as it should be).
Made the switch a year ago after moving from web developer to tech lead and having all the issues you mentioned. Now I'm just writing code again. Best decision ever.
- TeMPOraL 9y agoNot OP but in a similar situation. Believe me, I'm trying to. Unfortunately companies in my area are not too happy about remote work, and I don't feel ready yet to risk going full freelance (though I'm actively working on changing that).
- mcjiggerlog 9y agoBut if it's remote work it doesn't need to be in your area (as long as they are willing to employ you, as opposed to contracting).
- TeMPOraL 9y agoThis week I'm trying to negotiate a remote work policy with my employer. Keep your fingers crossed :). The thing is, I actually like my work, and like my company. But due to mostly family reasons, I'd like it much more if I could spend at least 3 days / week out of the office. Long-term, I'll either relocate with my SO back to a major city, or I'll go freelance.
