This might not be the best community for this, but I don’t know what job I want after high school. I’m afraid of pursuing a job that I’ll end up hating. How do I figure out what job I want when I grow up?

    You want the job that is offered to you, pays good, and won’t feel like hell every day. This job may or may not be related to your field of study, but you better study something useful if you want to be taken seriously.

    Stop thinking that you can pick and choose, sometimes you can, sometimes you can’t. Some people can, most people can’t.

      This this. I’m in my 30s and have hopped around jobs for a decade, and now I’m considering going back to school for accounting. My first degree choice was biology, which I still love but it wasn’t at all practical.
