Did you start out working in one job, only to find that it was phased out when computer came in, or the company downsized? Did you continue in that field or did you have to change careers? Market researchers say that today's baby boomers will have to change their careers three times before they retire. I went from office worker to counsellor and now to professional writer how about you. Tell me your story.

Hello winterose I did that, i was a teacher for toddler because i like children then i saw that we can make improvement to my self if i stay with that, then i changes to have my own store and work in a store that can make me know about having store. I just like what i am doing now and i can have a lot of friend with that, sometimes i miss teaching but i will take the risk, one day i will have my own kid and i can be their teacher. Thank you and God bless you
