Can I still change career now that I'm 23, or should I accept

nope! literally no one can ever change careers by 23, you'd just end up getting fucked by black men

Dude I was talking to a family friend in his fifties who has a nice house in a gated suburb on the coast of California and works as a higher up in Cisco's management a few months ago. He said that he was wanting to transfer to their marketing department, even at that age with that much success. He told me that "In your father and I's days people would change their career at most four times in their life. I've been told, though, that your generation will change their careers ten or twelve times which is simply astounding." The world is changing, your line of work is a testimony to that.

Yeah, I mean about time. I'm tempted to redo college; 3 years. I'll finish at 26. I don't know if it is worth it.

>>18085119
Absolutely.

Just might not be what you always planned.

Theres other jobs that pay well that Dont require a degree. Might I suggest trades skills?

Come in animation bro. I assume you're talking about 3D stuff. There's a lot of jobs right now in that domain and you still got 10 years or so before the market becomes saturated.

I'm studying in this field and there's people from everywhere here. I'm 20, all I ever did was 3D. One of my buds is 23 just like you, he never studied before. Hell, there's a guy who's 32 and he's loving it, this guy's path was crazy before he got here.

It's a good field to study in right now, you should do it. 23 is still very young.

Well, anything related to animation. I just love it. I made the wrong decision of getting into a software engineering degree since it is boring as hell and everything they "teach" us is worthless for the actual work field (I already worked on it in a formal well, getting nice money). Now I want to get better an animation degree not for the degree/paper itself, but to actually get the time to learn more about it. If things get sketchy I know I can get back into software even without the degree.

>I found that soft. eng. is actually far easy and feasible to learn at home
wtf? if you're this smart learning animation on your own should be even easier lmao.

do it at home. animator's survival kit and practice is literally all you need. going to art school for it is 9 out of 10 times a bad idea unless it is one of the like 2-3 good animation schools in the U.S.

Yeah.

Ah, I feel like I could learn more going to school, not specifically for the classes, but for the people and atmosphere. Am I overrating the "college experience"? I feel I've been useless this last 3 years at my current school.
