Starting a new career in my 30s actually makes a hell of a lot of sense.

 Let me explain why.  So I did the whole uni thing when I was 18. I went to university.  I got a degree in psychology.   Now, at 18 years old, I didn't know who the hell I was, and I for sure didn't know what the hell I wanted to study or spend the rest of my life doing.  I personally don't feel like an 18-year-old is qualified to know what they want to do for the rest of their life.  I mean, when you were 18, did you know who the hell you were?  I'm only 34.  And it's only now that I feel like I know myself a little bit.  So starting a new career in my 30s makes all the sense in the world because now I know who I am.  I know what I like, I know what I don't like.  I know how I want to work.  I know where I want to work.  I know the kind of job that I feel will be most compatible in terms of me as a person.  It's all about redefining your success, redefining your personal goals, redefining what is fulfilling to y...

They didn't need me for overtime this week, so I'm picking up two shifts next week. So I'll be working five out of seven days next week. Which is gonna suck. It is my last week, and I might as well go out with a bang and pick up five out of seven shifts. That kind of says something that they need me so much right before I leave. But whatever.
