May I ask how long was your break? Are we talking weeks, months, years?
The reason I'm asking is that one of the developers I had the pleasure to work with, a while ago, had this "own policy" that when changing jobs (developer jobs) he must, first, take a short job in a totally different environment that has nothing to do with IT.
In the last 7 years he changed 3 IT jobs. In-between he had a 3-months job as a bartender and a 1-year job as a cook (or something like that) on a transatlantic ship.
At first I wouldn't know what to make of it, but as time passed for me too, I came to understand his decisions. Not yet sure if I'd have the courage to do that tho.
For further actions, you may consider blocking this person and/or reporting abuse
We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.
