I have almost always struggled with a career, mentally that is. I started off serving. Hold on modeling as a child, then reception and dispatch. At this time, I felt that computers knowledge would be a thing of the future, so I went to school PC Support. I never really felt grounded, however, I am pretty damn good at it. With the birth of a few angels, I continued my work in office management and on to administration. I truly loved being an admin'!
Almost every industry, actually all, requires some administration. Just like whatever you are good at doing, there are avenues leading right from it. If not, you can make your own lane. Never forget that. Not only was I great at handlling other organizations' needs, I realized through my struggles that I had some pretty kool hidden talents. They saved me in the long-run let me tell you.
