Pondering a change in careers
I visted an old friend's blog yesterday (for the first time in about a month) and saw that he had a link to a career website that is designed to help one decide on a career path. He encouraged everyone to take the "Career Matchmaker" quiz and share the results. Apparently I am best suited to be a "Crane Operator". :) Here are the top 40 careers that I am apparently best suited for:
1. Crane Operator 2. Heavy Equipment Operator 3. Airport Ground Crew 4. Ship's Crew 5. Heating, Air Conditioning, Refrigeration Tech 6. Production Woodworker 7. Coast Guard 8. Commercial Diver 9. Cable Installer and Repairer 10. Tree Harvester 11. Sheet Metal Worker 12. Computer Support Person 13. Carpenter 14. Millwright 15. Fisher 16. Welder 17. Enlisted Member of the Armed Forces 18. Vending Machine Servicer 19. Boilermaker 20. Elevator Installer and Repairer 21. Industrial Machinery Mechanic 22. Power Plant Operator 23. Lineworker 24. Automotive Painter 25. Survey Tech 26. Tilesetter 27. Stationary Engineer 28. Combat Engineer 29. Automobile Assembler 30. Drafter 31. Cabinetmaker 32. Infantry 33. Autobody Repairer 34. Landscaper 35. Glazier 36. Auto Detailer 37. Machinist 38. Tool and Die Maker 39. Computer Network Specialist 40. Nursery / Greenhouse Grower
The funny thing is I am currently in my #39 and #17 (part time) 'best suited' career. I've also dabbled with #8 (Auot Parts delivery driver), #12 (first and second tier support), #13 (was an apprecntice for eleven months until I 'broke' into #12), #18 (my little candy store), #30 (took the class in H.S. and loved it), #32 (it was my first 'job' in the National Guard), and #34 (Loved it, but my alergies killed me).
I like my job, but not love it. I also don't see Pastor or Bible study leader in there. :) Maybe when I retire I will retake the test to see what I can do to fill my days up. :)
For those who are interested here is the link and instructions:
1. Go to http://www.careercruising.com/.
2. Put in Username: nycareers, Password: landmark.
3. Take their "Career Matchmaker" questions.
I'd be interested in hearing about your results. :)
Verse for today:
Colossians 3:16-17, ESV
Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly, teaching and admonishing one another in all wisdom, singing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, with thankfulness in your hearts to God. And whatever you do, in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.

I went to that link, but the password and sign-in wouldn't work.
Sounds interesting though.
