Feeling stuck

>>17514221
The world will always need plumbers. And electricians, and carpenters, and construction workers, and auto mechanics, and barbers, and mailmen, and garbage collectors, and truck drivers, and . . . .

Honorable and well-paying professions all.

Money is less important than feeling fulfilled and engaged in my work. Office work is soul-crushingly awful.

Do you know if already having a bachelor's would hurt my chances of going into trade school?

Most college degree don't pay off unless it's an advanced degree in a desirable major.

I doubt it hurts that you are educated and skilled at whatever you do.

Yeah that's the vibe I'm getting. The other thing I worry about, perhaps foolishly, is my folks. My parents did a lot to put me through school, and I worry that going to trade school after spending so much money on undergrad would come off as spitting in their faces.

Office jobs blow man. Especially data entry or anything clerical and repetitive like that. I just said fuck it and I've been working at a fucking grocery store for the last year and I actually enjoy work now because I just talk to customers all day and help them out. I might go back to school to go into nursing or something because of it.

I'd recommend trying out something new to learn what you're into before going headfirst into another career program, but it's not too late to go to trade school by any means (so long as you don't mind having 20 year old managers occasionally).

I've been in a few different environments though. What would you recommend?

Have any of you been in this situation or something like it?
