hello guys, good afternoon from Indonesia i want to talk about my life, I think I have a quarter crisis in life like suddenly I want to change my occupation from civil servant to data scientist or analysis not for nothing, I have elderly parents and my current job forces me to be away from them. And I see the opportunity to work in data remotely or better than now. Am I wrong?

It is hard to be civil servant nowadays, if you let it go, you might loosing something precious. Have you tried to take your parents whenever you are on duty?

No you must do what is best for you. Please take a thought carefully. You are a very good person to care of your elderly parents.

From what I'm reading seems like your parents are ok for now since they are working. I would study and learn the advanced skills. and plan for the future. And make sure my business and job are in place then move back with my parents.

You can do the jib of a data scientist if you can work remotely but you will be close to them but I don't think you can do much for them.

@kurniaadimas You have to stick to your laptop for hours and can't devote time to your parents. You have to depend on external help.
