Some interesting reading on this thread. I'm one of those people who never really knew what they wanted to do but after a lot of job swithching I now have a list of things I don't want to do!
I left school at 16 with ok GCSEs, did a bit of retail and various warehousing/light industrial jobs, tried setting myself up in a trade but didn't stick with it. I'm now in my early 40s and have been assembling mechanical parts for almost 8 years and I'm fed up with it, bored of the work, frustrated at the lack of discipline/professionalism of my colleagues and the company which affects my work environment, and starting to think I don't want to be here much longer. I want to work/exist in a better environment with colleagues who are on a similar wavelength and hopefully get more satisfaction (and money would be nice) out of what I do.
I've inherited some money which I could use to start doing something but I don't know what to do or where to start. I've spent most of my working life quitting one job to go to another, only to find out the grass isn't greener. This time whatever move I make I want to be a positive one. Any advice, suggestions etc appreciated.
