I really suck at confrontation. Even discussing different web technologies or changing processes gets me het up. Does anyone have recommendations on good books I can read on the subject?Also, I'm looking for books about improving assertiveness.I've had a search already but it's hard to separate the wheat from the chaff.Thanks for you help!

Thanks for the suggestion. I've never felt compelled to travel although I've been to Japan and would like to go again. I feel like going abroad to do something might be more up my street. Do what? Is the question.

I'm at a point where I'm considering taking a break from my career as a developer. I have no children but it's something I want to happen at some point so fancy doing something before I settle down. What would you do if you were in my position?
