I was going to go back to school but realized that by the time I finished another degree (2-3 years) I'd be competing with 25 year olds and I'd be 50. I love MT, love working at home and am trying to rebuild my client base after some relocations which is hard and expensive. Meanwhile I have taken some work with a MTSO but it's not enough to pay the bills.
However, I'm not ready to pull the plug yet and work outside the home but if I was, I'd love to be a florist or a photographer, neither of which I have any formal training for, so I stick with MT for now.
Have you checked Yahoo Jobs? Googled "career interest survey"? I took one of those and it gave me a range of potential jobs. How about starting a home-based secretarial service that isn't strictly medical?
What are YOU interested in? Make a list of things you might like and you might be surprised at what kinds of jobs are available. Unless you're in a small rural area like I am that is but I'm sure you'll come up with something. I'd love to hear what you do decide! :) |
I'm in the same boat sorta (sm) - midwestMT
