This article really hits close to home. I recently turned 30 and I am still struggling with what kind of career I'd like to pursue. I feel hopelessly stuck in a rut and I recently left my hair stylist career in pursuit of a more stable paycheck at an office. It's a decent office and I like most of my co-workers, but the topic of our business is boring to me and I see a lot of shady things happening that make me not proud of my company. I've been feeling really discouraged for the past several years because I lack passion (I have chronic depression that I've been dealing with for a long time) and anything I do find remotely interesting seems to pay very little or is very hard to get a foot into or requires years and years of schooling that I cannot afford at this time.

Soon, I'm going to be helping my boyfriend refine his resume and find something he issuited for. I will definitely be keeping this article in mind and perhaps I'll be doing a bit of job hunting myself.
