In this episode Scott and I talk to technical folks who have moved on up to Management - and what it means to them.

* Mark Freedman [http://markfreedman.com/] shares his story about clawing his way out of a successful career as a manager at a rather large, growing company. A good job, lots of respect, and he hates it.

* Bertrand LeRoy [https://weblogs.asp.net/bleroy] talks about charting his own path right at Microsoft after graduating with a PhD in Physics and how he maintains a career right down in the middle of manager and coder.

* Todd Baesen talks about moving from Chemical Engineer to Nuclear Engineer on the USS Enterprise (literally), and then to senior management at a big engineering firm in the SF Bay Area.
