My Search for a New Career


I have been pondering, if I were to go back to work, what would I do?
I don't want to do advertising anymore. It just seems like such a waste of everyones time. I know I don't like to watch commercials or read the ads in magazines.
SO, I figured I would go back to school and get a new specialty.

Real Estate: I don't want to work on the weekends. Don is only here on the weekends.
Law: I don't want to be stuck reading long boring law documents.
Business: How boring?
Teaching: I could teach High School English, but what is the point when I would only be paid $2 an hour?
Art: Seems silly and frivolous.
Architecture: Can't do the math.
Culinary: I don't want to be that creative all the time.
Nursing: Couldn't detatch myself from the patients.

I normaly would just pick one, do it, and see how it goes. But now, with 3 kids and their future to think about, I just hate to roll the dice with tution money.
Everyone tells me I need to be in sales. Sell what? The only thing for which I have a passion is non-profit...again, $2 an hour.
It must not be time for me to go back to work.
Guess I will take some Leisure classes.
