    Ophthalmic Technician. I poke people in the eyes, ask them if it hurt, and then send them out the door extremely sensitive to light.

    Detective.

    I'm seriously thinking about this one. Is it possible to get into without law enforcement training?

    Edit: I'm assuming, maybe incorrectly, that you mean PI.

    Love the profile pic! That's Walter Goggins as "Boyd Crowder" from "Justified" right? That's a great show.

    Wow some great careers listed on here! As for me I'm 28 and I still have no idea what I want to do with my life. I've worked a variety of odd jobs from Admin assistant, personal assisting, etc..but once I gained a bunch of weight I was unable to work. As I get up there in age I feel like I'm running out of time to figure out what my "calling" is. Sometimes I feel like a total loser compared to my peers. My weight hindered me from going back to school so one of my main goals is once I get to a more comfortable weight I'll go back to college and actually finish. Currently I live at home and take care of my terminally ill Grandmother and focus on her and my weight loss journey. I partied hard when I was younger, and now I'm paying the price. I'm sure I'll be one of the oldest one's in college lol.

    I doubt it. I went to University with several people in their 50s and 60s. You'll also notice once you decide on a path that it's much easier for you to avoid the drinking and partying pitfalls that will cause the younger ones to often drop out or have a low GPA.
