I swing a hammer. jack of all trades, master of one. I sell paintings. I buy, trade, sell special-use wooden furniture. I keep my cost of living down, which is easy in this state, so I don't have to work much. Screw higher expectations.

I'm self employed doing web development work. My husband (INTP) does all the back end coding and web apps, while I do the design and front end coding.

I couldn't imagine working for someone or having to go into an office everyday.

My enjoyment of the job itself is just mediocre. Not what I want to be doing long term.

I've got mediation and crisis hotline counseling training coming up in a few months. I am currently an undergrad, I am majoring in psychology and minoring in criminal justice. Once I get my bachelor's in psychology I'm going to be working as a mediator through college eventually up through my Ph.D. I might still be a mediator, might not. I think I'll just be a psychologist (they get a lot of random work), a clinical one preferred.

I'm in college and looking for a job. For some reason, working a regular part time job seems rather mundane.

I'm spending my last year of undergrad studying abroad in Japan.

And then...

I do not know.

Unemployed student.

I've decided to become a writer since I've always been good at it naturally, looking to get an English and Technical Writing degree in College.

And after I'm done with that I'm think about maybe going to an Audio Engineering school and Film school. Looking to become a bit of a dabbler.

retail bitch for 3 years. I'm a sophomore in college, but when I get out I hope I can become a conceptual artist (I drew the picture on my profile page). Don't know what I'm doing in school though, I don't even have a major (but I plan on transferring). I'm clueless.

I am part time student, and work part time as a delivery driver.

Other than having to put up with my boss for an average of 10 minutes a day... this dead end job is amazing. Driving around town all day, just listening to music, singing, smoking. Then I have to get out of the car and be polite to someone for 5 seconds, but then I'm quickly back in my car having a blast, and getting paid for it.

Beat that you academics. 25 dollars an hour, all I had to do was get a drivers license. :D

But seriously, I can't really decide on what direction to take my education. Any advice on how y'all decided?
