[quote=Anonymous]I am an IT Project Manager and I love my job. I like to solve problems and I love the variation that my job has day to day. I work from home so I have no commute and my schedule is flexible 75% of the time, which means I get to go to the market in the middle of the afternoon during the week and I am home before and after school for my kids or if they are out of school for breaks or sickness. With a laptop and a phone I can do my job anywhere, and I have. As far as the job itself, I work with a group of people on a project and then a different group on the next project so if there is someone who I don't personally work well with chances are I can avoid having them on future projects. I also get to see and help bring to market technology that does not currently exist or that is an improvement on what does exist, and that is pretty cool. The things some people don't like about my job I actually enjoy. It can be isolating - I am super productive and maximize my time because I am not spending time chitchatting with coworkers or  commuting. You are responsible for other people's work - It's all in how you look at it... I am responsible for managing a project and the process not the people, therefore I hold people accountable for what they do with the process. It can be stressful - If you are a good project manager in a good organization there is occasional stress, but I may have 10 stressful days out of 100 and I am OK with that. [/quote]
