What originally got you interested in your current field of work?

[jazzygirl0826]

Well, I'm a student in college, but I do study biochem, as well as Spanish. I was interested in those from a young age due to my heritage and my parents' professions. I am planning to go on to medical school, residency, and then a fellowship. Once I complete those, I will live in South America as a physician.

I started working in my field when I was 14 years old. My Mom need help with bills and paying the house. She asked me if I would be willing to work at her company for a few hours a week. Soon, I was working full time. Worked all through high school full time. I did get burnt out. I realized working sucks. But I stuck with it. Then I realized work is great, people suck. I have been working in restaurants ever since.

Nothing. I actually have little interest in my field of work, despite it earning me over 6 figures.

I fell into it by means of working with people and having a talent for IT and management. My actual interests are very different.

Its in my name and in my blood.
A few of my immediate family members do the same.

[Jjpayne]

Simply working with people. My school kept asking what I wanted to do and I kept saying anything until I realized how much I liked helping people. So hospitality just came naturally to me as a career

Grew up fishing, which turned into guiding, which turned into a career on the water that actually pays.
And it allows for international certification and a lot of time off

Originally: My Grandpa's hobby workshop and LEGO; supported by later spontaneously booking a sailing class.
I'm a naval architect.

My grandfather was a judge and a lawyer before that. Wbu?

[jgokgotit]

I like actively having the power to protect people.

It just brings me fulfillment to complete a client's file, reaching the deadline

My S. O. traveled a lot for work, so I bought a travel agency! :)

[douride2]

At the time it was just a job that paid well & I needed a job.

[DavidHart]

Got interested in my current field of work because of the pay.

[bannacookies]

I like gardening a lot; hence why I work in landscaping.

[jasco]

Money, the fact i can do more with what i can do with my time thanks to it

[Nikki1989]

It was just a job advertised online, and now I am kind of stuck.

[msc545]

The amount of school it took (literally double digit years after high school, and I love school), and the opportunity to heal others.

[legalboxers]

Got into law at 16 with the District Attorney. I had a break down one day. I dont know why.

[Waldoe]

I'm retired.. I became interested in "Retired" after working my whole life.. I like retired, a lot...

[psychoticanimaIIover]

It’s what I’ve always wanted to do since I was 5.
