Sometimes I feel I took the wrong career path. I should have stayed in development instead of project management. I hardly get any interview calls (mainly because of my location - hardly any job opportunities in IT). Companies don't seem to want this position on remote either. Does this career path have a future?

Boss has WFH for 9months. I have been WFH for 2-weeks for travel quarantine/state guidelines.
