Three-pronged fork in the road

Christina Wodtke has written an article about career options for designers, IAs and usability folks. To quote:

Yogi Berra once said, "When you see a fork in the road, take it." For designers (and engineers and others in the "service" organizations), the fork in the road often comes mid-career, when you finally feel like you are good at what you are doing. Suddenly you are offered -- almost required to -- do something that is 90 degrees away from what you have mastered. And that is pretty scary.
