Yep I have been there OP. My boss keeps trying to promote me and I keep telling her I do not want to be anyone's supervisor. I am sorry but I do not want that extra headache every day. I am good at my job and content in my role so why ruin a good thing?
I can understand that feeling. Boy, can I understand it. It's that thing where we are conditioned to want to climb the ladder, but on each rung there is a whole group of characters we now have to deal with. I've kind of gotten used to it, but it's all a big lesson in patience.
I'm a pharm. tech. with experience in all areas of pharmacy and no i don't mind teaching or managing people that want to learn from me.

I think it's hard to keep moving up, if you're not willing to deal with managing people in some way
I think there's probably a way to communicate this without sounding like you dislike people, right? I totally get where you're coming from, but I think you need to frame it to management like you are just really fulfilled in your current role. And put as much of a positive spin on that as possible

Absolutely. I wish I was a sole contributor.
