Yeah see this is why I just list my job title. I don't know any NT who stay software engineers very long once a management position opens up.
"Hey Sam, you like writing code and are good at it! So good at it, we decided to give you an opportunity: how about you spend your time talking to people instead, huh?"
My mother turned down at least one management offer saying something on that note.
"I like working with software. I don't like working with people."
I asked my mother the same when I was a kid (why did you not become a boss), and she said she did not want to. Once I started working, I understood and agree 100%.
