"1. Be more specific. The aggregate wisdom and experience here can be quite insightful, if we have something with which we can actually work. Otherwise you'll get a whole lot of wisecracks and end up feeling resentful about having asked.
2. What do you love to do?" [Wolf]


Wolf, I am not so sure what I love to do, but I know that I don’t like a competitive, business like environments. Being around and work with people whom I love and respects are what make me happy, I guess … also helping the unfortunate, the sickness would make me feel worthwhile. And yet I also like to be able to learn and grow though works …. Is that too much to ask?

Yes, I was trying to get to this “specific” field in health care, but you know the story …. didn’t make it.

If you don't like competitive, business-like environments, you made need to rethink healthcare ... okay, they aren't business-like in the same sense that a cube farm is, but healthcare has it's own special challenges. I have the good fortune of being able to wear teeshirts, jeans, and sneakers to work, as well as to work with some pretty cool people, and only have to behave 'professionally' when I'm actually face-to-face with a patient or family, and even then I have some leeway.

I never intended to work in a hospital (well, there was my 9th grade career report about wanting to be a psychiatrist, but that doesn't really count), certainly never had any experience for it, but one fine day, it happened.

If healthcare interests you, even if you can't work at the level that you first imagined, try getting a job in that industry.

Try it.
