Right now I'm a cashier at a convenience store. I just got my AA and I'm looking for a better job. This is just something to fill in the time.

I really like that I get to talk to people, I actually really enjoy it. I've only been there a few months and I already have customers coming in just to say "hi" to me. I've always been a people person so I guess this kinda fits. (Not that I want to stay here forever)

So after being a cashier, what kind of job do you fancy going for? And it's really sweet you're bonded with customers, gives a really good community feeling.

I'm not really sure where I want to go from here. I've been looking into joining the Navy but I' still trying to decide how I like that "scene". I do know that I want to do something where I work with people.

What are your plans? I read through the comments on that post and I didn't seem to find out what you're interested in doing.

Well if you're considering the Navy, don't forget that there's more after it, so you'll need to plan ahead anyway. And I'm actually thinking of going into nursing, I love the idea of medicine and working to help people out. But I'm stuck between nursing usually at a hospital or professionally into mental health nursing. The whole idea of mental health/psychology just fascinates me.

I love psychology too! I had my heart set on being a counselor/social worker for good portion of my life.

Something related to psychology and helping people really seems like what I'd want to do. But what made you change your mind?

I change my mind so often I can't even tell you. It's one of those things you know..I guess I'm still trying to "find myself" or something.

At least I'm figuring out what I don't want to do. That's a start right?

It is a start, I'd say to stick to subjects or hobbies that you really enjoy for a clue.
