As long as there are debs to shoot, I'll always be on the squad.
That's the best way to do it. Go out there and get some real world experience. That way you can decide if this is something you REALLY wanna do or go to grad school for another field.

I'm just too frustrated by the lack of support and the inability to grow with their increased work load.

Other factors were a few idiotic co-workers and my personal opinion that the firm was unwilling to pay for quality work. There are a million other reasons why I wanted to leave like commute time, office logistics etc.

congrats son.

everyday i feel i should have gone to school for something different :hs:

i also consider going back to school everyday for something else, even though i just graduated two months ago.

i do think my major led me to what i really want to do, but i don't think it's gonna lead me to a career unfortunately.
