+1. I still work for government and in spite of everything I would still recommend it, compared to many other options.

Also a journalist. In fact, I have a masters from a top journalism school. Big, fat waste of money. Worse and worse each year.

I don't have to break my back and don't work any nights shifts/no holidays, no weekends. But I would not recommend nursing to most of the people. I also have friends who are teachers and their jobs are so bad and stressful. Honestly, I don't know what profession I would recommend to my child anymore.
It’s 2025, women have more options than teaching and nursing!
I had the same thought.

+1. My kids know I love what I do, but I tell them we don't know what jobs are going to be around and how they will have changed.
