If you enjoy sticking your fingers in someones halitosis infested mouth, inflicting enormous amounts of pain and then charging that person outrageous amounts of money, then become a chartered accountant
Answer 14 :
Dentists are the modern day medicinal version of Rock stars. Chartered Accountants are hated by all except other chartered accountants. Go and hang outside an accountants office for 10 minutes at lunch time and see what they look like. Once you become one of them then you will only ever date people from that profession Anyway, If this is your future, why are you talking in the present tense?
Answer 15 :
Um, you might try being more accurate with your spelling, if your future depended on it. The issue is inside your head, not something we can determine in a forum like this. Assuming your first item was that of a dentist, a good stretch away from accountancy, you have to find out what a dentist needs to learn and then see if you can make yourself learn, then repetitively do, that. Similarly, accountancy has its requirements. Do you have the skill and temperment to do that kind of work? I used to set up people's books on computers when personal computers were new, even teaching accountants how to do accounting in various programs when they used to do it on paper. I couldn't go far in accounting because I 'zoned out' when it came to taxes. I stopped doing it altogether over moral issues when bosses and managers wanted to get creative with the books. Every job has its difficulties. Every job has its entrance requirements. Before you travel either path, find a counselor somewhere with some good personality and skills tests to determine what you are capable of. Then do some soul-searching to see which you could see yourself doing. Don't forget, and I take this with the assumption from some clues you gave, that as a woman you might also find yourself most fulfilled making babies and taking care of a husband. It is still good to learn a trade because of obvious life hazards like divorce and death or disability of spouse may require you to do as most women, get a job outside the home. Between dentistry and accountancy, accountancy is more portable over time. Good luck.
Answer 16 :
I suggest if you need to ask ,your heart is in neither when you think that you will spend approximately 30-40 hours a week working or going backwards and forwards to work and you are willing to decide your future by the flip of a coin .Why not take time out and seriously consider your options are either of these what you really want to do if they were I doubt you would be asking us you would know exactly what you wanted.
