Most of my experience as a builder is in commercial casework basically that's just cabinetry on a grander scale. How do I make the transition from a lead builder of commercial casework and innovative musical instruments independently to a technical research and development of innovative products builder? I'm open to suggestions about making my career more transitional because of successfulness in musical instrument design and manufacturing.

What kind of "technical research and development of innovative products" are you interested in? I think that some tech companies would value your clear aptitude for building well-crafted things. I just wonder if you could be more clear about what it is you are looking for?

How does a consultant or associate director/above in industry manage their properties if they are always in meetings ~7-8 hours per day? Eg does one call contractors after work hours? Does one hire an individual property manager to take care of a few properties? Does one hire a property management firm?

I imagine one can still self manage as long as you have initially found the go-to people for your maintenance/fixes (eg plumber, electrician), then can quickly text them for appointments

I don't like my job, the responsibilities and tasks aren't right for me or my lifestyle.

Key positives for my current employer are pay and security. But my new role within the company isn't working for me, and ultimately I don't think it is for the company either.

A much much smaller (20 people) company offered me a role.

With the global economic situation as is, is it worth the risk to change to a job I know i'd like more with less pay, and potentially less job security?

which is fair, and to show my credibility I published my first app last week, but I’m still getting similar messages from recruiters this week. Idk what to do??
