Hi everyone, I've been a machine operator for the last ten years. Decent paying union job, and the security is good! The last five years I've been asking myself, what am I doing? What am I going to do with my life? I know that this isn't what I want to do for the rest of my working career! I still have 25 years left, assuming I want to retire early at 55. I wouldn't be able to if I stay where I am now.
So what's holding me back? I really don't know, maybe fear. Fear of loosing the the investments I worked so hard for the last ten years! Now that I have two young babies under the age of a year and a half, it's getting hard financially and harder to make the decision to leave.
I just started reading this forum and it made me realize a few things. I need to change who I am, as a person! I don't even know WHO I am, and I'm almost thirty years old. Stuck in the same routine for so long, and life is passing me by! I just need to bite fear in the a$$ and say f... You fear! And dive right in!
Hopefully this forum will continue to drive me forward and give me more inspiration! Thank you all for the posts!
Cheers Danny!
