Major Changes

I am thinking about changing my major. I am currently working towards a degree in Information Technology. It is just an associates, but still.

The STBX keep trying to get me to sign something that would basically prevent me from pursuing my career dream until Boo Bear turns 18. Obviously, I will not sign it, but this has really made me wonder, why am I pursuing a degree in IT when none of my dreams involve IT?

So, here it is... I could switch to numerous majors that have a lot more to do with my dreams and are still lucrative. I need my career to be lucrative to be able to fulfill this dream, so this is a major consideration right now. I also need my degree to scream at banks in the future that I know what I am doing when it comes to operating the business that I will with out doubt be asking them to loan me money to get started.

My chosen career field will be in the hospitality, food service and boutique retail realms. I think I need to pursue a degree to further my knowledge and hirability in those fields.

Also, I need more income, though I love my job. I can pursue a management position with in the company I am at now, and I intend to once this divorce mess is settled, but I am also looking at getting a part time job in one of those areas. I have already spoken to several people in various local businesses as travel time would greatly eat into my already stretched thin schedule.

Speaking of thin schedules, I need to get off here and work on my current schedule. Best wishes to all...
