[quote=Anonymous]I do regret it. I had an opportunity to make a shift out of academia a few years ago and chose wrong because I didn't understand how hiring worked in private industry, but government was transparent and made me a firm offer first. My friends who went into tech instead are making so, SO much more than me working remotely from their chosen beautiful cities, and I live in a townhouse in a DC exurb. Idiocy. But "a decade in government at age 40" sure isn't the same position for making a shift to tech as "brand new PhD with no gray hairs." [/quote]
