Yeah I have no idea how Eric has posted so much!!
It willt ake me another two years to get there.
I have been a member for over a year and I only have about 700 posts
I wish I knew where I wanted to go haha. I am in university now and am taking computer science. I do some web stuff on the side to pay for my tuition. However, I think I will switch and go into business. I am gonan try something next year and just take the courses that i like and see where that leads me.
But I do know that I want to be a cop. (strange, huh? No one ever understands it) I would like some time working in the K9 unit, and then maybe working in the Major Crime Unit.
I spent some time hanging around with a police officer who was investigating somone who had a warrent out for her arrest. I was very lucky because we actually ran into the woman and he arrested her. It was so exciting! I didnt do anything, but I still felt so good to get this person off the street (for now..). I think I would be very happy to be doign that. So that is my profession.
I want to run a company on the side though. I'm not sure I want to completely depend on a police officer's income alone. So hopefully that is where my business (or computer) degree will come in.
All through high school I would measure sucess on how much money a person makes. But then for some reason it hit me that money realy has nothign to do with it. In my eyes, I think now I see sucess as being happy with what you are doing, and who you are. As long as I have that going for me, I don't think I will even care what kind of car I have.
At the moment I kind of see making money as a game. Its fun to work for it and get it... but I could do without it
Comments? Suggestions? I really value your oppinions.
This board is perhaps a bigger influence on me than I would like to admit
Wow! I'd say you've got lofty goals already set.
A K9 police officer and a possible career in computer science. Are you planning to do both? This will certainly give you a means to and end. Perhaps maybe even to get a M5 of your own someday.
You shouldn't use money as a motivating force between your career making decisions. Just my .02 cents. You should pursue a career that you know to be something that you will love doing. One of the things I did was to pursue a degree in two different fields with a third possible choice on the way. The first was Psychology, the second was in Media communications (graphics design) and the last possible career choice for me would be something in the educational field. Decisions, decisions!
I'm curious as to what you mean by this board having a bigger influence on you. This could be viewed as a good and a bad thing. Depends on how you see it.
