Ask HN: Stuck as a developer for 15 years. How to become a manager?
I've been a developer for entire 15 years career.
Used to enjoy but no more. Very difficult to tolerate the work. Every day is mental pain as I get older and younger folks are above me. It feels undignified, humiliating at times.
Stagnant in my current job for 6 years. No promotion opportunities. No motivation for the interview process.
Feels like i'm driving at 70km/hr towards a brick wall. Not close enough to panic. But no forks in the road also.
Can I leverage my experience (i think i have a lot..) to move into a management role when i don't have any job experience in that role?

Should I just lie on my resume?
Thanks
