Again I know just how you feel. I've been comtemplating going back to school & finishing my elementary education degree. However even though the job market for teachers is okay in my area they are making cut backs & jobs aren't prevelent. Plus I'm terrified that if I pay this money to go back & get the degree that then I won't like that job anymore than the one I have now & then it'd be a waste of money. I'm seriously not happy in my current job, so I'm going to explore I job change that my current degree works for. And then I'm going to go from there.

I think volunteering is a wonderful idea. I always wanted to be a vet until I worked in one & got nauseus during a surgery. So maybe helping out in a clinic or office might answer some questions for you without any out of pocket expense.
