Career Change

[caligirl85]

Any of you guys made a complete and total career change?? Go back to school? Try something new?

I'm 20 years in, this year, to a career in the helping professions and I'm about helped out. I've moved areas within the same profession and I don't hate my job but the passion is gone. The problem is, being the sole breadwinner, finding a way to earn a living and do something new. Plus figuring out what that would be.

I'm thinking I'd love to work on cars!! What do you think...an all female, bikini top mechanic shop??

Right out of college I worked in child welfare/social services for 12+ yrs then switched careers when i moved out of state. I've been doing behavioral health managed care in one capacity or another for 8 yrs now (that's mental health/insurance field for thise of you who aren't familiar). I didnt have to go back to school. My psychology degree was enough to get me into a new industry. What's your degree in?

Pretty much, yeah. I guess....Medical field into customer support and sales, and now looking into going to school for paralegal..Who knows!

Working on cars sounds interesting. Go for it!

that's a great idea. you'd have men bringing in their vehicles when there's nothing wrong with them

^^ this doesn't happen

however other male mechanics will resent you or crush on you
the wrecker driver will take pics of you to txt to everyone...uhm, and in your day to day customers will pretend youre not speaking to them and defer to any male in the room...even if hes the kid that sweeps the floor

don't work on cars
