Dropped out of school today

Sounds like you made the right decision mate. Nothing to say you can't go back in a few years when the time is right for you.

You live you learn... Make the next move. :)

Its tough finding what the heart desires and still interests the mind.

Im hating my job now after nearly 40 years but I feel stuck in it for the time to cash ratio and if I let it go, its gone.

This type of stuff eats at your health if you allow it to linger into deeper feelings.

I admire your willingness to move on.

I think a willingness to move on is something that is going to be negatively affecting our workforce in the next few decades. I've done 5 or 6 jobs since I graduated, the longest of which has been 3 1/2 years, and really it isn't enough to get a massive experience in any one job.

In some ways I wish I'd settled in one organisation and worked my way up to a better paying job, but right now I'm disliking my current job and looking for a way to move sideways or out. Being willing to take the leap isn't always a good thing.

What kind of jobs did you do? I'm try to work my way into some non profit fund development stuff. Im doing an unpaid internship as a grant writer with the Red Cross and I've been enjoying it so far. Looks like I might do something similar for a hospice soon too.
