What happened to Growing Up?

[Janx]

[MENTION=8835]Janx[/MENTION], I'm glad you had enough common sense to have an idea of what you wanted when you went to school. I was 17 and clueless when I went.

I'm giving consideration to going back to college again before I hit 40 and hoping to do something other than custserv until I retire... but I have no idea what, and at my "advanced" age, starting a new career path seems unlikely with today's preference given to youth.

It worked for me, so advising somebody with a technical interest is pretty easy, as I know a path that works via IT. Folks outside of that, I got no clue how they can get a foot in the door.
