I know just about as much about what I want to do with my life as I did when I was 18. How did I let it get this far without any real direction. I wanted to be a professional musician (aka rock star) as a teenager. Well, that plan sure failed. So, I went with what appeared to be the next money maker, computers. Got my AAS degree in Electronics Technology. That’s great but could only lead to a life in manufacturing. I found myself right back in school and finally got my BS in Computer Information Systems. That led me here to GA.
This is exactly what I had in mind, either. So what do I want to do?
1.) Own my own business. A bar/nightclub/restaurant. This is a pretty competitive business and I have no business sense. This is bound to fail. Not to mention, you need lots of capital to start up a business, which I don’t have.
2.) Systems Admin. That is the most likely scenario for me. I have a few Microsoft certification tests I need to take and get some certifications that I can put on my resume. MCP is far too common to be impressive.
3.) Forensics. If only shows like “The Forensic Files” had been on TV when I was in college, I might have changed my major. It would take too many hours in college now for me to go back and get another degree.
4.) Retail store manager. Depends on which one, money can be made but it is a huge operation to keep going and when things fail, you are the one to blame.
5.) Bum. This would be easy to obtain but hard to live.
Hard to belive that after all these years of thinking I knew what I wanted, I am still thinking.
