I guess I was hoping to slip back into the stream and go on being mostly unnoticed and that just doesn't seem to be the case.

Good luck. In many organizations, once you've risen to the level of "competent", it's all over. You can't go back. You have to either find a faraway corner to go hide in for a long time, or you have to pack your bags and move to a company that doesn't yet know that you're competent.

I was just hoping for some deeper wisdom, in regards to maintaining in the current workspace.

There are several "tricks" for managing your career. One is to realize that if you draw lines around what you enjoy doing, what you think you're good at doing, and what the people who pay you think you're good at, you get a Venn diagram. There might be overlap there, or there might not. As you choose what you get involved in, you may find that you'll be happier when there's a lot of overlap. When there's not a lot of overlap, you're going to get pulled in directions you don't want to go.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
