It's so frustrating to sit here and be able to think of careers I would absolutely love if they weren't locked behind college education. And I feel awful saying that because I feel like makes me sound lazy or unmotivated, but like. I'm not. This is shit I'm so passionate (1/?)
About but like. I can't survive in that environment, I had a breakdown after like, two months max. But like, I would be so interested in becoming a mortician, or a botanist, shit like that but I just. Can't go into the education system again. It's too much. (2/?)
I love plants! I love the science of death! Looking in mortuary stuff and watching a mortician on YouTube helped me come to terms with my own mortality! This shit is so incredibly important to me, and if I could just like, learn on the job or something it would be perfect (3/?)
But I can't, I need an associates degree, and I can't handle acquiring that so this job, that would be so perfect for me and would make so happy, and that I would be so passionate about is unavailable to me forever. I want to help people the way that learning about (4/?)
This stuff helped me. I don't know, this thread quickly morphed from lamenting college in general to lamenting not being able to be a mortician. I'm very frustrated about it. maybe one day I'll get over the mental block that keeps me away from college. Either way (5/?)
I can't stay at my current job in my current town. I talked to my brother today about moving across the country, since he's currently doing that, and I could get some entry level job in like data entry or something, which would be better than customer service. (6/7)
