slug 1 #31 January 17, 2004 QuoteI'm an interpreter for the deaf and teach sign language at the college. I love my job. It was the job I had before this one that caused me to go back to school and change my career. I'm glad I did. I love my job. Oh wait, I already said that. That sounds (no pun intended)I was a engineer, after college, math was no longer an issue. Depending on who/what/where, you work the job could be good or bad. I've heard with the popularity of CSI and the other shows, forensic science is becoming populer. I think the education requirements would be more challenging than a being engineer. My second career choice would be a piano player in a whore house. "Play it again sam". My suggestion? Do some intern/part time jobs in the area you think your interested in befor you commit to 4 years of college. There's always the military where you can be all you want to be. Travel the world see exciteing places and kill people. However I wouldn't reccomend accepting anyhting below the rank of General R.I.P. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
caress 0 #32 January 17, 2004 I don't think I would change my career, just be better educated sooner in my life with it. I have my own business. I subcontract construction. I would much rather hold my license, and be fluent in reading plans. Things would have been so much easier had I got the knowlege first, then jump in with both feet.-Caress I've learned.... That being kind is more important than being right. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
McDuck 0 #33 January 17, 2004 Train dolphins or orcas. That would be my dream job. I've already worked with big cats, i.e. lions, leopards, pumas, tigers, etc. That was a blast, but I'm a child of the ocean. I'd be happiest training dolphins.Kevin - Sonic Beef #5 - OrFun #28 "I never take myself too seriously, 'cuz everybody know fat birds don't fly." - FLC Online communities: proof that people never mature much past high school.

Michele 1 #37 January 17, 2004 I am a realtor. I really enjoy that. If I could wave a magic wand, I'd get a college degree, and then go to law school. I think I'd be pretty good at law. Or I'd wave my other magic wand and write - prolifically, and sagely. Pity I haven't got any wands, magic or otherwise.

Pick 0 #38 January 17, 2004 I've changed careers or career paths involuntarily a few times now......I'm currently a machinist again.......after being a wanna be airline pilot, then I kicked tires and pumped gas on fighter jets, then became a machinist, then a tool maker, then a tooling designer (it's like being an architect or an engineer, except my designs actually work) , then a project manager.......now I'm "just a machinist" again, and flying again for fun. In a perfect world, I'd be designing, building, and flying the "perfect" airplane........and making mass quantities of money in the process. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ltdiver 3 #41 January 17, 2004 Currently have a B.S. and work in the field of physical therapy. If I had to do it over again, I would have continued with school and completed my DPT (Doctor of Physical Therapy) and gone into research for the neurologically challenged. I LOVE working with the accident victims that come through our rehab hospital, but would like to have alot more background into what's new on the horizon and be a part of bringing that into fruition. ltdiver Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You know, I have a few patients who went that route early in life. They now have the most awesome stories to tell! I could sit at their feet all day long and listen to their adventures. Kind of like living vicariously through them....it's intriguing. ltdiver Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JohnnyZ 0 #43 January 17, 2004 I think I would be a teacher (preferably a high-paid one)... The summers off would be really nice. I travel a lot with my curent job (truck driver), which is cool too. I get to stop at various dz's when I want to. It would be nice to have a less time consuming career, though. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mjosparky 3 #44 January 17, 2004 I was a Firefighter for 30 years, 15 as a Paramedic. Also working in test and development of aircraft egress systems.(parachute testing). Now retired. If I had it to do over again, I would not change a thing. It did not happen often but every once in awhile I got a chance to make a real difference in someones life. That gives you a feeling deep down in your soul that is like none I have ever felt.SparkyMy idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
freeflir29 0 #45 January 17, 2004 I often wonder how differen't my life would be had I gone to college instead of joining the Air Force. However....it's going pretty well. I've gotten to do a lot of things that most people only see in movies. I've got a kick ass job and even though I have no real degree I make more money than most people that have one. Now....if I can just get out of Cleveland and go back to Atlanta life will be a bowl of cherries. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well, I'm under 27 by only a year, but not a college grad. That's why I'm looking to change careers, I need to get into school. I would LOVE to be a pilot, or something of the like. I too wonder what life would be like if I went to school rather than join th Army. What's the idea, quade? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bobsled92 0 #49 January 17, 2004 We are both loking for a new life, eh? Get something with fair pay and security. Without that, the shiney things in in will tarnish & fade fast. As a future: a surf bum or skydive bum. be sure that you like being a "bum". There's no retirement package with that. I have to move south and soon (less than 20 months) and I have kids: 2,14&17yrs old or I would n't be sitting up here frozen._______________________________ If I could be a Super Hero, I chose to be: "GRANT-A-CLAUS". and work 365 days a Year. http://www.hangout.no/speednews/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
