I don't have a career yet but I do have a focus.

I am a humble biology student, trying to focus on plant development and evolution genetics as well as systematics and taxonomy. I have a professor who is a essentially a wizard, and this path is extremely rewarding to me, I am so happy to have foundd this opportunity. I am aware that this path is a long and tedious one. Next week I will be beginning research into tissue culturing Spinacia olercea and this will be the foundation for work on the study of genes that control flower morphology and development.

Also I founded Students for a Sustainable Earth at my university in conjunction with a few other universities and the current project is starting a community garden and possibly revitalizing a canal in conjunction with the city. The hope is to grow enough of the right things to sell at the local market to fund and promote research into growing sustainable and economically within the city.

Also I am involved with the local movement to champion forward the spread of the much loved Cannabis sativa.
Currently helping set up growers and create a cannabis grow co-op.

Spreading real medicine is what motivates me to wake up in the morning.

Also this community is a huge inspiration to me, it gives me hope for the world yet!!

I on the other hand have been stuck in the fast food service industry for 5-6 years now. It is really taking a toll on me. The repetitive nature of the work and the fact I do not support the products I am helping to feed people disgusts me.
I have wanted to quit for many years, unfortunately after applying for over 100 alternative jobs with no success I fear I will be stuck in this cycle.

Being on a minimum wage, I cannot at this time afford to go back to studying. My heart is with working with plants and I'm currently trying to find a horticulture traineeship with work placement. I feel this may be the best option of freeing myself from this horrendous industry I have gotten myself into.

I am still young though, and I'm certain there is a light at the end of this dark greasy tunnel! Wut?


Hang in there bro (or sis? )

I´m sure you will eventually find another job that will satisfy you more, or at least not be against your ethics. Keep trying, applying to jobs, contacting different people who might help. Just remember ¨this too shall pass¨ Smile Best of luck!

I'm with you on that one, my friend. Just stick it out as long as you have to, that's what I'm doing. If nothing else, it will help you maintain the motivation to move on to something more stimulating Smile

Great to see the diversity.

At the moment I work as an underwater cameraman for a super rich guy that likes to go diving. So basically I travel around the world and document his crazy underwater antics on state of the art digital cinema cameras, edit movies for him to show his mates ect. I have traveled to some incredibly unspoilt parts of the ocean that i only dreamed of ever getting to see before,in the past 3 years of this job and have seen raw sea-life few others have the privilege to witness. I get to work in the ocean (my home) go surfing on remote tropical islands after work (my love) and get paid well to do it all, I am very grateful

Like many things it is love/hate, I have no fixed abode so having a relationship is hard, growing plants impossible and finding time and place for entheogenic explorations is sometimes challenging. Being involved in the consumptive lifestyles of the mega rich is pretty dirty energy which I try to protect myself from as much as possible.

Iv already had this job and lifestyle for longer than I originally intended but as these things go, more money and progression in the company will tempt me to stay a few more years. When im done I will hopefully have the financial freedom and skill-set to make environmental documentary films exploring the beauty of planet earth and our role as guardians of the planet at this critical point in history. Making some positive contribution to the world through my work is an ultimate aim for sure!

Or i'll change course entirely and get into permaculture. Life is unexpected!

Portfolio manager and researcher for a well-known quantitative hedge fund. At one point in my life, I was very close to becoming a monk. In a sense I did, while operating in the world. I have a family with two young children and a grown-up step-child.

Thank you for your thoughts. The wheels are now in motion. I finally was able to afford to enroll into a horticulture course with mandatory work placement upon completion of course. Not long now Big grin . Just waiting for the first round of study materials.
So thank you very much your kind words endlessness and Entheogenerator.

So strange how all these pieces fall into place lately.

If you are in North America, Landscape Horticulture is a now a Red Seal trade, and many schools offer 4 year apprenticeships, where you go to school for 6 weeks each year, and then work the rest of the year. You can also apply for unemployment for the weeks you are in classes. It's not easy though, landscape horticulture is hard on the body unless you luck out and find a job that is just weeding/planting and pruning etc. It's easier t be a greenhouse technician. If you really want to work in horticulture, go start applying for every greenhouse and nursery job you can find. Once you are in, tell them you want to be a grower. I think it is 2 years to get as associates as a greenhouse tek, but some places will train you anyway there, and some might be willing to sponsor you to go to school. You can always go be trained as a master gardener also, which will help you get jobs in horticulture. Im warning you though, it's not all just watering flowers..
Long live the unwoke.

Been working at a roofing company for almost 2 years now, I like the job but I'm not fond of my bosses exploitation of their staff. Have other plans on working for myself with a friend of mine, would be really great as it'd give me more time to do things I'm interested in, I want to go back to school but I don't see how I can atleast until I am self employed. Very interested in our relationship with nature and believe it to have the solution to everything if we just re connect, medicine, food, energy and such. I want to work with natural medicine, I collect various medicinal herbs that I forage sparingly in the woods where I live in a caravan. Pretty content with most of my life but I feel like there's a lot of inner potential which is being supressed by my job and the atmosphere of it.

I am an international music producer from the states. I am currently in Europe producing music for a couple of Pop and HipHop stars. I also have my own musical projects but producing is what is currently paying my bills.
I also run an international research organization called Earth's International Research Society. I also have a geophysical sub-surface imaging company called Geophysical Assessment and Investigation Association (G.A.I.A.).

I am also currently studying Business Brokering and Business Valuations in which I plan to utilize when I arrive back in the states later on this year.
