I've been working as IT Support, then as a(mediocre-at-best) Sysadmin for about five years, with a few years of Tier 1 Help Desk before that.

Currently, my job pays well enough ($85k in rural PA, US) But I don't have much growth potential where I'm at, and am looking to advance my career.

Would it be a worthwhile endeavor for me to build my development skill on the side, in the hopes of moving into the developer job market, or should I look for more advanced work in the SysAdmin realm?

Thanks in advance.
