Joined the army at 16 as an Armourer, left 17 years later for similar reasons. Wife and kids were up north, and I was away down south. I commuted every weekend I could for 5 years, totalling about 30k/year. A bad tour of Iraq took it's toll on my sanity. I left that job at 33 and felt lost!
I drove HGV's for 12 months which was quite good fun, but crap money, and ended up what I'm doing now albeit away from my engineering roots. Been doing this for 8 years, and I'm getting itchy feet again.
I'm 42 and not afraid to look for another career, neither should you bud. The world's your oyster, so go hunting!
