I know that I want to make the jump into media. Maybe an industry job, here.
Oh, that's not necessarily "management," in the way I think of it. I mean, you wouldn't be applying for PR Director jobs or whatever, but there are other jobs in the same department you could get, I'm sure.
Like business manager at a small production company or post house or something, Allyson?

I think that there are coordinating jobs -- here is a herd of projects, make them all go the right way on deadline -- and there are office-management jobs, which is what Allyson seems to be in (though perhaps not called that or paid that way). Certainly, the coordinating jobs have more potential to moving up into "deciding who will coordinate what" and then to "what projects will we take on" stages.
It's possible to make a nice living as the person who does all the HR/purchasing/billing/etc. of a small company, and stay there for 20 years. Depending on your temperament, this may be bliss or boring.
However, unless you can spin your current experience into "I coordinate lots! See me coordinate!" then coordinator jobs are likely to start way back at the bottom of the pay scale, and possibly be populated with recent college graduates.
(Can you tell I made this kind of transition recently? 4 years ago, now. I did move up quickly, but that first year, I was po'. I don't know if it's the same for all values of "coordinator," but I think it's true of a lot of them.)

Yeah, that seems like it might turn up something. I know someone who runs a post house that mostly does reels.

This is what I'm doing and I like it, because it leaves time for writing, plus no one breathing down my neck.
Two of the attorneys in my office just watched me carefully remove all traces of bacon from the spinach salad that was served as a part of our lunch.

At least you have a lot of people in your Food Freak Club here at Buffistas.
This is pretty cool. And as a bonus, it doesn't involve bestiality.
Dana just seems fixated on the bestiality.
