Career Change

[agotta]

Ok, so I a currently run real estate classes for a large brokerage. I am also a TA part time for my own business. DH and I are moving back to my home town and it's time for me to start a new job (Again). My background is in retail and I do have my B.S. I would love suggestions on what kind of job to look for. I am not really intersted in going back into retail, although it might be a possibility to begin with. I am just really not looking forward to starting something new, but the TA thing is not full time (yet). TIA for all your help and input!

Would you want to be a real estate agent?

 

[agotta]

Absolutely not I love to sell, but real estate is not for me.

 

[vettechick99]

maybe you should flip houses!!

Changing careers is so hard! I'm kinda going through this myself. I've got a BS in Psychology and always wanted to go back to it so I'm trying to get into career counseling. Keeping my fingers crossed!

What's your BS in?

 

[agotta]

I saw your post on flipping houses. I would love to do that. If only it didn't cost so much!! My degree is called Individualized Studies. Kind of like 4 degrees in one. Business, Hospitality/Tourism, Art History and Design (Interior).

Gosh it's a toughie. At least you have a nice broad background! Now is a good time to do something you've always wanted to do. So any ideas?

 

[agotta]

Not really! I really want to stay home and focus on the TA thing and have babies

Sheesh, are we twins?

 

[agotta]

One of the reasons i started being a TA was that someday I could "work" from home when we had babies. That and I love Disney!! What do you do now?

 

[vettechick99]

I work from home! I own a marketing company although I'm so sick of my main client I could scream! So I'm scaling back and getting into something more satisfying part-time.

Although if I could think WDW 24/7 and get paid for it, I would!

 

[agotta]

That is very cool. I have thought about doing marketing before. I am actually trying to think of how to market my new business. It is hard to compete with all the other Disney TA's. On top of that, when we move, I found ou that there is already a company with the same name. So now I am struggling to think of something new! What other kinds of thinkgs are you thinking about doing?
