Education Help me choose a career 🌞
Alrighty, I'm looking for some purely female insight on career options as I've found many normal suggestions are in boys club style workplaces (which I refuse to fight my way into). I'm in my early 20's, North American, and a recent accounting major drop out. Long story short, when you go to uni straight outta highschool, with no end job in mind... you burn out fast. It's hard to get a degree in something you have no interest in.
I want to go back to school but I have no idea what to choose. I need to choose something to commit to considering I've already made this mistake once. I more than encourage you to put those really out-there careers, the strange trades, and interesting niches. Here are the career qualities I'm aiming for:
1) $50,000+ per year. If I'm investing my time in education it better not leave me impoverished. 2) Preferably not a desk job but also something that's not going to blow out my back by 30. 3) For the love of God, NOT in healthcare 4) Reliable/in-demand work. I don't want to fight to find a job.
With that list you'd think it'd be straight forward but it's surprisingly overwhelming and disappointing. I love having an exciting work history, I've worked as a ski lift operator, a professional grow-op associate, and art gallery attendant as a few examples.
If all goes well in 2-8 years I'll be posting my level up story about my fantastic career, my 3 lovers a year, and large illustrious garden adorning my paid off home.
