Trying to figure out how to pivot and make a career change, even with all the logical advice I've been given, is only reminding me how burnt out and risk adverse I am.

I just can't bring myself to start over again, especially with the amount of financial anxiety I have.

Because all I've learned leads to "You have to start over" and I'm too scared to change.

I quit my cushy U.S gov't job to go to Viva Las Vegas, circa 1999-2000. Played poker and Blackjack, made three months rent, got my room comped--what more could one ask for?
Never looked back.

@deborahh hi Deb. I believe you’re right! 🌸🙌👍

https://aus.social/@coolandnormal/109622693500608854 I'm a #Gardener looking to do a qualification in #Horticulture.

Although the qualification can be done in a classroom setting, I would prefer to do it as a #traineeship partly because I think I would learn more and partly because I need the work. Signing up for a traineeship based qualification requires regular work on a contract.

I have a special interest in #Tea #CamelliaSinensis particularly #Puerh
I'm also interested in #NativePlants #LandRegeneraton #FoodSovereignty and helping elderly and disabled people maintain their gardens, their access to food and their connections with nature.

I have farming experience and am happy to do mostly outdoor manual labour. I'm a casual university #teacher so a school garden program or other educational environment would also be suitable.

Please #boost if you know anyone who might need #Gardening #Horticulture #LandCare #GroundsKeeping #MarketGardening in #GundijimaraCountry or surrounds.

Edit: I can organise the qualification, the prerequisite is that I be contracted to someone else's horticulture business (rather than self-employed in horticulture, as I am now). There are government kickbacks to make it worth your while.

I currently work at Melb Uni, so #PartTime is fine, although I would consider giving that up for #FullTime

I thought I was sooo clever. Remember I am a new coder. I had this color schema that I was doing in css. My coding friends were like "it's not normal to use variables in css"... turns out I was just inventing bootstrap.

#css #bootstrap #careerchange #hireme #lol

I just wanted to throw some positive energy into the Fediverse by sharing some personal good news: I GOT A NEW JOB!!!! And it was the one I wanted most!!! It's been such a hard process and the level of relief and happiness I'm feeling is not remotely quantifiable. I hope whoever reads this gets some good news their way, too. #happypost #careerchange #newbeginnings

Having a dickens of a time centering some Font Awesome icons within... checks notes... their own box model.

This is not how I planned to spend my evening.

I pause the recruitment process for two weeks while going on a much needed holiday.

I am now back and resume preparing for technical interviews with LeetCode easy problems. Looking at them with rested eyes, I just can't stop thinking an entry level job interview must be based on more straight forward questions.

I google "full stack javascript interview questions" and find loads , ex: https://www.fullstack.cafe/interview-questions/javascript

I decide to focus on these.

I have a #goal of being #successful enough with this #careerChange from #teaching to #freelanceWriting that I can afford to buy #AppleVisionPro by #launch. #Hope I can make #goodEnoughContent to #reachYou and #keepYou!

This week’s column…our strength at being able to accommodate and adapt to changing circumstances can be a weakness that masks underlying career dissatisfaction. https://www.smh.com.au/business/workplace/the-covid-legacy-how-some-broke-free-from-a-career-path-they-may-have-resented-20230518-p5d9g3.html #career #coaching #psychology #work #job #covid #careerchange

A 🧵

1) I will return to Belgium this summer and do something outside higher ed to earn my crust. I might write more about that later, but not now. There is no juicy gossip or big story, I just want to go back home after 10 years in the US.
