Oooo, you could get work instantly with those skills, and can be selective of employers, I would think.

So, do you have a good support system in place, Jules?

My job that I trained for and loved burned me out after 13 years in the field. Fried. Crispy. Extra crispy. I took a job in a bookstore for a year, and began teaching part- time at a local community college. Totally refreshing!! A year after that I was made an offer by a university for a full- time position, and snatched it up! 30 years later I retired, content.

All this to say, have you thought about teaching, Jules? It keeps you on the cutting edge without immersing you in the constant trauma. ❤️‍🩹
