I am going to Disney World. I love Disney World. I have kids. I've been married for 15 years. I am 45. I work at a computer company. My mom is a dentist, she is sweet. I love shopping. I love meeting new people.
I am going out of town for spring break. I just dyed my hair blue. I just turned 29. I don't have kids. I am in between jobs. My mom gave me a car. I just got a new dress for easter.
What type of job are you hoping to get? At this point, anything that will pay the bills! I'm kind of desperate.  You don't have kids, so you just have to support yourself, right? What jobs have you done so far? I've worked in retail and in restaurant settings. I'd like to branch out into the financial sector, but I feel like the competition is out of my league. You might have to go back to school to get a credential. You could do that part-time or through online courses. Finance is a good industry to get into. It's hard to do restaurant work as you get older. With 30 just on the horizon, I totally feel that haha. What's the situation like in the computer industry? Do you know of any entry-level jobs? Sure, but it depends on your skill set. Companies are always looking for programming talent, if that's your thing. It takes time to learn to program and it requires a lot of time sitting by yourself. Do you like spending time alone, or are you better with people? I'm a pretty social person, so that might be tough. That said, I feel like any of the higher-level professions are largely solitary pursuits. Finance can involve a lot of working with clients...sales, presentations. If you're good at communicating, then it could be a good way to go. I'll definitely look into it! Would I need an MBA, or just a few courses to get familiar with it? An MBA from a good program can help, but you would probably have to borrow money. Career changes are much easier with an MBA. There are one- and two-year programs. Would you want to go back to school? If I had the money, I'd be all about it. At this point, I'd have to save for a few years before I could seriously consider it.
