You hit the nail on the head right, my friend. The need for Architectural services, though not dying, has been morphing into a role of irrelevance...almost to the point of just being 'the stamp' on a set of drawings. And this trend will only continue.
Couple that with the hoops ($$$) required to gain licensure and an archaic, bass- ackwards governing body that is our AIA, it's no surprise why the 'interns' of my generation are either leaving the profession or applying their skills elsewhere in the sector for a much more rewarding experience. Think Jonahtan Segal.
Good luck, POP. I got the cut last October, and I've never been happier. Completely in charge of my work. design...and destiny.
Don't worry, there's got to be a pony in the pile of *hit around here somewhere.
