DShiznit 0 #1 January 16, 2004 what would you do? what do you currently do for a job? I'm seriously thinking of getting in school to completely change my career and I have absolutely no idea what I want to do. I have been doing technology sales for about 6 years and am ready for something completely different. I was thinking of maybe the forensic stuff, that would be cool. I just want a job that I enjoy and have finally gotten the motivation to get my ass in school. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
