[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think some people are quite naive about a career change. Grass is greener sorts. I'm an attorney and moved around a bit recently but am finally in a place with very interesting work, good pay and goo co-workers. Sometimes the move doesn't have to be so extreme. I just feel like some people don't have a good grip on the realities of their "dream" job. [/quote] I agree. I made a transition to what I thought was my dream job leading to a new career (but a stepping stone not a completely new careee) and discovered it wasn't what I wanted after all. Luckily, I didn't go back to school or invest more and it was easy to switch back again. I also realized that I didn't want to start over in my late 30s. It takes a lot of work and most people are young without families. I don't judge others though. [/quote]
