Whereto?

A co-worker was laid off today. Kind of shocking because well, it was a shock. That makes me nervous because if someone has to go next, it's totally me. Krystle asked me if I want to end up getting a new job eventually or stay at the one I have. I seem to get asked that a lot.

I don't really know what to say. I mean, for now this job is okay. I have my own office, good hours, and a good friend working with me. It's just not what I majored in. I don't really know why the hell I majored in Marketing but it's a done deal. I know you're telepathically trying to tell me I can go back to school and "be whatever I want," but it's not that easy. It's usually the people who got all their school paid for telling me that, too, so I don't think they quite understand. Maybe I'll change my mind in a few years and regret not going back to school for Journalism or Archaeology, but as of right now I'm not going back. I don't want that burden. Mentally, physically, or monetarily. I may not love my job but I do love having the weekends off. I love having time to read a book or go on a random vacation. A lot of people who love their job can't tell me the last time they did something enjoyable that didn't involve work. Well, I can. It's give and take, I suppose.

To sum up my answer to Krystle: I said that I don't really know. Right now, it's okay but if I ever do want to change jobs, I want to change my entire location. I want to experience a new place. I just don't know how or where I'm going to accomplish this.
