For those that don't know, this job is like sitting in a giant pressure cooker of stress and anger day in and day out. There is always someone to fight with, always someone to argue with, always a problem, always someone unhappy, and always someone blaming you for things that you don't and will never have control over. It will turn you into the worst version of yourself and slowly affect your personal life (the small one that you are allowed to have). There is a high probability that you will become an alcoholic and just an down right unhappy individual which will ultimately affect your wife, kids, and family. There is no such thing as a work/life balance. The job comes first. Period. You are either on the A Team or you are off the Team. Pick one. I just cannot imagine an entire career of being a part of this God forsaken industry full of greed and lies.

Imagine being in residential.

Imagine this time 1000x because homeowners have unrealistic expectations and know diddly squat about homes.
ETA: I'm in a similar situation as you, but a couple years younger. I'm looking to switch over to tech.
