Hey! These articles are great. Thanks! I started working at the local golf course when I was 16. I loved it, for it was. College came around and I was a mess. I didn't know what I wanted to do, but everyone else was doing it, so I felt it was in my best interest. I gave it two semesters and split. I wasn't focused. I was a mess. The golf course paid more than most coffee shop gigs, and I really liked it so I stayed...for 7 years. My boss let me work when I wanted, however many hours I wanted, but this year I just didn't have it in me to stay and I didn't wanna let them down, so I gave my notice after the winter. I'm starting to see my future in a more mature way, like some guy said in one of those articles, manual labor doesn't stimulate your mind. My pay went from 8.50 when I was 16 to 11.50 now that I'm 24. :/. Thats a long time, but I'm starting to think out of the box. I need something hands on, but something that has changes and requires training. It's just the, spreading out, taking advice and buckling down when I find what i want.
