Man, I am sick of working in IT, staring at a computer screen all day, dealing with the same stuff day in and day out. Been doing it for 16 years. Caveat: It's what I know and pays well.

I feel empty at the end of each shift, like something is missing. My job is easy, too easy.....and boring. Some guys would drool at this opportunity, I guess I am more motivated to sit around and watch DVD's when it's slow. BTW, I work a 3/12's overnight shift at a major SW Corp as a Linux/UNIX/Network administrator.

What other fields could one jump into that could provide a quick ramp-up time and offer decent pay?

I'm in love with cars, but don't wan't to be a grease monkey at some low-life dealership.

Everyone is playing the real estate game....so that's out

And, to make things worse, at the ripe old age of 40, I have yet to figure out what my purpose or passion is. How screwed is that!!!

Maybe I just need to rant, who know, but if anyone has advice, I'd appreciate it.

Cheers
