This ^. I've been in the IT field since 81. I packed in the learning @8 years ago and regret it every day. I'm in mgmt now and hate my lack of hands on work anymore. Can I still code , yes but not like I did, same with other job skills, I'm an overpaid babysitter. Stick it out but keep open communications with old job. That will facilitate the move back if it becomes needed 6 to 12 months down the road. But learn everything you can and stay in it otherwise you will eventually become an expendable statistic.
