I'd make a better product manager than developer. My code sucks, but I really understand what the customers want.

and what is holding you back to switch on the dark side and enroll in a evening school for management?

Understanding what the customers want is a really good skill!

@heyheni - money

@devphobe did you do your research?

Nobody really understands, what a customer wants.

How about trying your options to be like a lead or anything with project management type of work? If your company is big enough they might have the options to switch teams?

@Oktokolo customers don't really know what they want. It's marketing that influences customers to know what they should want.

What's wrong with being a PM? It's a vital job, critical to the success of any project.

@RememberMe he lives in the USA where education costs you both kidneys. So he can’t be a pm. Poor Americans that the accept this greedy system as given 😢

@heyheni oh I empathize with the kidneys bit, I'm the the US right now xD gotta save up for a dialysis machine before my blood turns too toxic....

But I know people move to managerial jobs all the time, and in many cases the company even encourages them (corporate MBA etc.).

@RememberMe dang, You’re Indian right? So book a flight to Delhi and check in to a Gurgaon luxury clinic for a weekend? Will definitively be cheaper and more comfy than the us 😄

@heyheni it would definitely be cheaper lol. This place is nuts when it comes to expenses (relatively)

Also can't fly back because quarantine, also studies.

@RememberMe had to google it.
For $400 a day you get finest medical treatment with a 5 star hotel room in a Gurgaon private clinic with rolls royce airport transfer, a food court, a cinema and Ayurvedic Spa. 😄

In switzerland i pay for a 3 minutes flu consultation with my General practitioner $400.
