Wrong Job After College

Well… I know no job is perfect. I can’t say I have ever met someone who is in love with their job - or at least every part of it. I always joke that this is why they ‘pay’ you to do it.

My concern is that this employer pays per job, so I don’t make anything unless I produce. It’s not like I can sit back and search for something else while being protected by a salary. As with most consulting jobs like this, it requires serious upfront commitments of time, energy, and my own personal money (as you build a business basically). I guess what I am saying is, this isn’t something you can simply ‘try on for size’ and easily walk away. The longer you stay the harder and messier it is to walk away. If it wasn’t for this, I would simply stay and try to make it work for at least a few years.

I am at the point where I have debated going back to school to do some more study in a different, but similar field.
