This thread probably belongs more in the work and careers forum than it does here. However, work and careers woes are what drove me to depression. I am still trying to figure out what to do with my life. I have been given a job as a walking tour guide but as of yet I have no earthly idea when this job will start, or exactly how much money I will make with it. As I love history, this is something I really want to do.
I also have wanted to go back to school for a long time, but was not able to when I was working 10 to 12 hours a day everyday. I put in the initial registration papers for school on Tuesday and filled out the financial aid forms today. At the same time there are a couple of jobs out there I could apply for. At the same time I am helping my husband start a photography business on the side and that is more work than what you would think. I am getting to where I just don't know what to do. Part of me wants to wait for the tour guide job to start but I can't up and wait forever. I have also been wanting to go back to school for about ten years and here is my chance. I feel like I am throwing things against the wall to see what will stick. It is like I am in limbo land.

waterknob, there is hope! You are in limbo land at the moment but there is a chance that things will come right. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you.

Hi waterknob,
Sounds like lots of possible options, and like it could be confusing!!! And you know maybe there is no wrong answer as to what you should do despite any "pitfalls" e.g. if the touring job doesn't pay much then at least you'd get to be doing something you really wanted to do and then a little more focus on the business.........if you weren't earning at college then maybe some free time to plough into the business/and more time with your husband.......... But any combination has the potential to be good?? Maybe try writing out a pro's and con's list for everything?? Just with the possible jobs you could go for (if they're part of the list) make sure you know all about what they entail, hey?? But I'd say that it can be important to go with your heart as well..........so if any one of those things stand out to you when you're considering them, you could probably work around any problems with practicalities if there were any, right?? Just some thoughts.......... Alison |
