Honestly I believe that to be one the largest barriers in our industry t getting better technical managers. The pay as a skilled and senior dev is *way* better.

Definitely have to agree with you, having been in the exact position your grandfather was in -- being promoted due to lack of opportunities, then eventually being sent back to my previous position. While some people are natural managers, others have to be taught managing skills. Being left floundering on your own is no way to have a career. --JP Sounds like you’ve been reading The Peter Principle, Aaron.
