Ill do my best not to make this a whining thread, but I know that there are a fair amount of people on this site with various different backgrounds, so I figure that it couldnt hurt to post this
.
To make a long story short, Im more than a little burnt out on my career . Here it is Sunday morning and Im already thinking crap, I have to go to work tomorrow. Im thinking that Thermoplastic Fracture Analysis and report writing has run its course. Im thinking about making a dramatic change (Im not even entirely sure what direction I want to head towards).
Here is the thing: Im 36 years old with a wife, family, mortgage well, you get the idea. I have certain responsibilities that I cant (and never would) let slide.
Has anyone out there ever been in a similar situation and made a similar change? What obstacles did you encounter? Was it worth it to take a hit monetarily to keep your sanity? Other thoughts?
