This is actually a strategy I am formulating as far as how to approach my client with it. Does my client need an experienced SAP programmer, or do they need someone completely familiar with their current system and business who can learn SAP?

But....I do confess to being burned out on programming. I really have only stayed with it because I make a good contract rate and I get to work from home and set my own hours and coach basketball. Working out of an office building somewhere takes at very least some of that away.
