2. Thank you, you are right...

I know most people don't love their jobs. I guess I've been raised to think that I should end up in such a position, though both my parents don't exactly love theirs (my fathers is closer). I suppose the thing that worries me most is the uncertainty of it all. I've never worked a white collar job in my life, this coupled with the fact that change has never been a strong suit of mine puts me in a difficult situation. I've never been good at not knowing what to expect even in the best of times, and usually such situations have ended up in disaster for me. It's a wonder that I managed even the 2 retail jobs in some ways. But you are right the right path is really quite clear, I'm just scarred (something I'm quite good at by now). I need to just put my head down and plow on through. Stop burning bridges and just grab the proverbial pull by the horns, to hell if it's my calling in life or not. I wish I felt like I had the strength to do so. I can't say I don't for certain but I don't feel it in my bones by any means either.
