Full Careers
Have you ever considered a career change?
I am currently a teacher and have been considering a career change. Just not sure what I could do and have the same security I have and make at least the same amount of money. Any ideas?

- I used to be a cattle rustler, now I'm just a cattle wrestler
- could you work for Kaplan or as an educational consultant for text books? Would you be able to work for a consulting company or work for a hospital as a teacher?
- I too have concidered this and am still at odds what to do. I currently earn a decent income and realise i would have to get a degree to have my prefered career choice. I know it will be stressful at first but I've been told to follow my dreams...........maybe you should too.
- I change careers completely last year. Finally decided that I really really don't want a desk job anymore!! I want to be outside! I'm an experienced gardener, and decided I'd rather do something related to that. So I bugged the guy who hires at a fabulous nursery nearby for 5 months. He finally hired me last September - directly into 'trees, shrubs, and perennials' (found out later almost EVERYONE starts out loading mulch and stuff - so I must have done something right). It's not as much money as I used to make, but I often find myself smiling and humming while I work. I'm actually HAPPY - even at work. So the money will come - as I don't think I'll be desparate to change jobs anytime soon - the pay raises will come, so it'll gradually get better. I can't tell you how much better life is, having work that you enjoy...wahtever it is. You don't HAVE to hate your job! Think about what you would like to do - and go after it!
- you may have to take some other vocational courses if you want to improve your salary
- ok, recently i just changed my job from teaching to marketing, will u considered this?
