[quote=Anonymous]It's not impossible at all, OP. What do *you* want to do? It doesn't have to be in communications unless you want it to be, there are plenty of good options for a career switch, and 36 (my age, too) is far from one foot in the grave. My mom got a MSW in her early 40s after being home with me and my sister for 10 years. She's 66 now and has had a terrific second career (worked in editing before she had us). She really loves her work, and I'm so proud of her. Really ask yourself, what do you want to do? What are you good at? If you're going to go to the time and effort of making this switch, take your time and figure out what would be a good fit for you. That doesn't mean it'll be perfect, but I bet you could find something that's much more well-suited to you than you describe your current work. (I hate cold-calling/pitching stuff, too, so I can empathize.) Good luck![/quote]
