Field in a cave. So..both.

Kinda job related, my grandma votes for me to go back to school. It comes up every once in a while when I'm with my family and I'm pretty torn. I enjoy the out of school life but don't see myself doing what I'm doing long term. Obviously a lot would depend on what I'd go back to school for.

Vikes just keep working and stacking cash, then when you know what you want to do you will be able do so more easily. Good luck with your decisions. If you can find something you are passionate about and it pays, you'll have a good life.
 
well I just meant does he know what area he wants to be in. He doesn't need to give a job title, but if really doesn't know what area of work he wants to be in, going back to school may not be the best thing to do. Unless he knows "I for sure want to go into law enforcement" then maybe additional school is worthwhile.

They ask this at work a lot - your '5 year plan' and I have no idea. I don't have CEO or something like that highlighted in an Excel spreadsheet. So I can understand being annoyed at wanting to be nailed down to something. Which is dumb anyway, things change, opportunities arise.


I know...I know you weren't grinding that axe, I just am sensitive to that question when people are struggling with a decision. It's asked so often, that sometimes, if people don't know the answer to it, it makes them feel inadequate. I feel adequate as heck in my abilities to be a valuable resource to my company, but you ask me that question in a loaded form, and I'm all "phuck...IDK, how you gonna ask me that..who can really answer that in definitive terms?"

WRT going to school, I'd say this...no matter what, if you do it, it can never be taken away from you. If that won't help you, it's not worth it, but at a minimum, even if it's not related to your job, you can show you can learn, and you can show that you will jump thru hoops put in front of you and you're told you need to jump thru them.

Ehh...bedtime...spend some time thinking about it, vikes. It's easier to go to school when you're younger, unless you don't have the drive. My mom went back when she was older, and she benefited from her age, but only after we were in college. Think about what drives you, and whether you can get to the level where you're not just a minion playing a role without college. If so, and those opportunities are out there, then you're good. If not, will you sacrifice now for later results? That's a hard call, but spend time thinking.
 
I don't know how I'm supposed to feel about this. Or how Nickels is supposed to.


last week my wine friends were like you and Dh are so entertaining as a couple. He's like the straight man to your silly. (Which I'm sure is a complete shock to you guys) I feel like nickels is the DH to pants. She's pretty level. So pants and I together would be too many up and down people in one relationship.
 
this belsomra drug sounds awful.


We should be like the Aussies and not allow pharma ads on tv.
