Hi,
Not sure if this is the right place to ask, but it seemed like the closest. I am currently looking for a job working in the computer/technology field, but without a degree in that area.
I do have a bachelors degree in music education, but I have realized after three years of teaching that I am just not that fond of kids and teaching is not the career for me. I am however very knowledgeable about computers, and willing to take some extra classes if necessary.
I don't really think programming is my thing (I was a comp sci major for two years before data structures kicked my ass and I realized I didn't really have the heart to be a code monkey), but networking, marketing, or other aspects seem like things I would be into.
Does anyone have any tips on directions I should go? I would ideally like to get something above an entry level tech at best buy or something, I can't really afford to go back to making minimum wage (I currently make $40K a year, and if at all possible I would not like to drop below that).
