Subject: Re: Reply Author: Jeff [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 21:38:35 12/21/02 Sat In reply to: John 's message, "Reply" on 14:55:58 12/20/02 Fri My interests and education make me perfectly suited to pursue a career as a filmmaker. I excel in the Social Sciences. No surprises all around. I'd like to learn what jobs could come close to being fulling experiences for me and if they are available to me with less than 6 years of additional training/education. Of course your interest and education make you suited to pursue filmmaker....you got a degree in Cinematography, but it hasn't gotten you any closer to being a filmmaker so I'm confused on that part. Regards to the other fullfiling experiences for you with less then 6 years of additional training/education...have you looked into these? What are these things? If you haven't looked, then why the hell not? Why haven't you looked or researched this through? On the other hand, if you've done the tests and know what you are 'suited' for ....well then it seems like its something else thats getting in the way. I'm just asking some of the hard questions so maybe some new answers or new insight can surface or maybe not and it'll piss John off. No, I'm not doing it on purpose.

[> [> [> [> [> Subject: Worthless Advice from a Sellout(Me) Author: Curt [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 00:14:34 12/22/02 Sun John, why don't you create several versions of your resume tailored for different industries and submit them (for free) to Monster.com? Then if job offers roll in you'll have some options. If some of the jobs pay well, you can pay some bills and save up some coin while you decide what you want to do. I haven't decided what I want to do when I grow up yet, but at I am making some coin. If nothing comes up, at least I'll be set for my retirement. Pragmatism should be paramount at this stage of the game. Pay bills and prepare for the out years now, and pipe dream later. I haven't given up on my dreams, but I don't let them interfere with obtaining food, clothing and shelter. [ Post a Reply to This Message ]
