Posts: 47028 04/30/2012 5:47 AM Most Dramatic '07 Expelliarmus! YOLO '13	I am. I graduated in 2010 with an art degree and is thinking of going back to school, but I have no clue what to major in. I want to get a part time job so I can get a cheap used car for that reason. I hate it when people ask me what I want to do with my degree, because I really don't know. I went to college to get a degree. I was an underachiever in grade school and wanted to prove that I wasn't. I actually became an overachiever and a perfectionist in college (I had to complain about the A- I got, because I wanted an A+ ) Besides art jobs are scarce where I live. I've thought about graphic design. I've also thought about teaching yoga, but I need to ask my former instructors about if it alone makes a living or if I'd need a second job. Most instructors I know have more than 1 job.

I've gone through 2 years of hell and am still in love with someone who doesn't want to be with me and I'm stuck. Not moving in any direction. At this point, I'd rather be lost career wise. I cried a lot less over that.

Posts: 3992 04/30/2012 9:31 AM	Absolutely. I have a good, stable job with excellent benefits, and it can be considered a career, but I've realized it's sooooo not for me - I pretty much dread going to work every morning. But I have no idea what else I would do, so I'm trying to figure that out now, not easy though.

At this point in time you should be working at anything, not just sitting at home lamenting your lost life. You have an art degree. So what. The world will not come to you for opportunities. Get off your ass and get a job.

Get off your ass and get a job. you don't hear the word "gumption" much anymore. And I don't even think that you need to say it in the nicest way possible, some people need the hurtful truth, but in this case I think she's just going to make her own problems and blame society/the world for being so unfair to her. Also in regards to this: I am. I graduated in 2010 with an art degree and is thinking of going back to school is the college you graduate from fucking accredited? <= Asked in the nicest way possible.

There is no excuse for not getting a job, any job. I understand she lives in Bumfuck, Indiana, but there has to be SOMETHING there. And if she's "too qualified" with her degree--leave it off the application. HP, apply for a job, and talk yourself into it. The universe does not owe you a job, you have to make your own good fortune. And frankly, you're in no position to turn down anything.

Posts: 344 04/30/2012 10:31 AM	Why is everyone telling OP to get off her lazy ass? I'm sure everyone has felt the way she does at least once in their life. It doesn't automatically make someone a "lazy ass". You can have a job, or two, and still feel that way.

No one is telling the OP that. We're telling HPgal.

Like other hobbies or passions that could potentially turn into a career? Is school an option, or volunteering even? These are all things I have been considering lately. I totally understand how you feel though, I've felt up and down about my field for the past 3 or so years since I got into it, and it's just getting worse and worse for me so I feel like I have to do something or I'll go crazy.

Posts: 25011 04/30/2012 10:51 AM	I'm lost. I'm thinking of going back to school, taking a couple of classes per semester or something or signing up for classes at a local community college that I've always been interested in.

There are times I'll work 3 days in a week and then have a week or two off. That's why I'm currently trying to find a better job.
