Hello dapper chaps of DJTT,
I have this dilemma that is making me waste time and need some advise or at least a direction where to move. I have a mess of career and education. The way I understood things were like this: you have to study 2 things: 1 that you like and 1 that can make you money. Of course merging the 2 was the sane thing to do but Im 30 and a bit late for repent.
I did a bachelors in Sociology. Years of punk rock with social and political lyrics and begin a positive/ideologist chap made me believe I could make the difference and change the world. Party and drugs kept me from actually checking out reality the way it is until it was time to look for a job. Soon after graduation I realize there weren't any jobs with my preparation.
Luckily, all the jobs I had during the BA were in computers and managed to build quite a resume working with some of the best IT companies locally until I realized I could manage to study computers so I did some certifications. Up to this point im saying "fuck punk rock. I should have studied information systems of computer engineer or some computer oriented stuff".
So we have a guy with a BA in sociology who has worked all his life in IT. Now the question that begs to be answered: How the hell could I merge those 2 things into something preferably on demand? Beign the author of " What is your day job? (If any)" http://www.djtechtools.com/forum/showthread.php?t=12740 I have realized theres a lot of super prepared people enough to put you all in an island and make a small superpower. I once read a comment that it said something like "Damn with that preparation I would be doing lots of things!" But at the time I had a good job and not the one I have now...
So if you were in my position, what would you do? I have no family so I could move anywhere in the world... Maybe a dreamjob with those 2 things would be working with Facebook or some social network... but thats just mental farts... Where to begin? Who to ask? Maybe starting from zero? maybe disregard the sociology thing?
Help!
