What a great thread. Hahahaha.

OK, let's get down to it, buddy-boy. You need to reinvent yourself. You have:
- Management skills
- people skills (likely with the mgt skills)
- technical skills (hopefully you learned about what you managed)

I would suggest contract work. Software testing might be something you could tackle with your skills, and you could work a few single-month contracts then split.

As for reinventing yourself: how about managing some other kind of work? People mgt skills can go anywhere. Maybe the Seasonal aisle at Target would be fun (...okay, that's for lurkette because I am mesmerized by her avatar...) What I am saying is apply the skills you have to something you'd rather be doing. Take some time to think about it!

Unfortunately, the real money is in a regular day job. We all hate it. Don't forget to look for some of those, too. *sigh*
