I'd want to do that, but I feel like the careers that help people are all related to medical school. Or they are non-profit/charity organizations. My whole life has been spent checking all the boxes that prune and prep me for a career in the corporate business world since that's what my parents wanted and thought was best for me. I don't exactly hate my job (I barely just started it). But businessmen/women get bad reps for feeling no compassion for people unless profit margins are being met. It's all about the money, and I hate being associated with that. I'm basically an ugly duckling trying to fit in and pretend like I'm one of them. But what can I really do? I haven't even saved up enough to live a stable life on my own. Ends have to meet. I can't go back to school and take out more loans to restart my life. Got to work with what I have. In the end, I really am selfish and "all about the money." Even if I wanted to do non-profit work and charity, I can't see how I'd survive on no paycheck. So really I am your typical greedy, self-entitled, superficial, hypocritical, hurtful, ungrateful, attention-seeking, little ***** who is looking for excuses to cover it all up with feigned innocence and tries to blame other people for things that should be my own responsibility.
