Changing career path. How?

[Morcs]

So you came HERE? LoL

Not looking for a job here. just getting ideas and advice.

here's a problem - 'in my field', yet you want to get out of your field, so your superb record in your field means nothing really.




so you want a career change because you are racking up too many k's on a bike? 500k a week each way is nothing. instead of running 2 bikes, and the associated costs, just have 1 good one and run the arse off it - a bike with a looked after 100000kms on it will still realise better resale than 2 bikes with moderate ks.

Its not purely the racking up of K's, its also the time and stress of battling traffic for an hour and a half + everyday. I leave work feeling reasonably good, i get home, im knackered.

and put a bike on tardme with 100,000k's, not many people will touch it.
Ive even had a bike shop tell me 30000 was a lot and used it to reduce my trade-in value.

Until they go to sell it, then it's "nothing for one of these"...

No, thats just Kawasakis and suzuki's...

What dont you like about your current job? Do you actually need to change? South Auckland aint that bad, GIJoe doesnt even have a garage and nothing seems to go missing

Nope. It's all of them. Just like when you're buying a house in 'St Johns'. Come time to sell, the agents will try to tell you it's in Glen Innes (which it probably always was if you didn't do your homework).

It's not purely the racking up of K's, it's also the time and stress of battling traffic for an hour and a half + everyday. I leave work feeling reasonably good, I get home, I'm knackered.

If you like your job and can't fathom moving, have you considered asking if you could shift your hours? Start late, finish late? Maybe even start really early, finish really early? If you're not travelling with every other bastard, it's actually pretty effortless.

Just a thought , have you considered doing some additional training outside of work, Like an open polytechnic course or something, so you can upskill and keep your current job for a bit longer, (things are a bit shaky workwise globally at present) It means you'd be giving up your own time but this sort of dedication gets noticed by employers , Be they your current ones or potential new employers.
